For a few years now, my printing out labels can't be read by either the wired or wireless scanner. Is there a way to have more options when printing out labels? Instead of having a Print Price Label and an Identification Label, combine the two, allowing us to print out the barcode nomenclature without the barcode I have a lot of virgin covers, and in cases where the barcode is on the back, I have been printing out two labels: ID and Price. I print out the ID with the Barcode because it includes the nomenclature under the barcode, so I can simply type in that number to look up my books but it doesn't give me the option to print that out with the Price. And the Price label doesn't give the nomenclature. Thanks

I feel your pain. I upgraded to the wireless last year, and I have my entire collection scanned in with no issue. However, every label printed, neither the wired or wireless will scan any of the printed out Dymo label barcodes. I have had no success getting it to work. SO for me take a book out of my collection and find it in the DBase I have to print out the label with the code under the barcode. I thought it was my system and reloaded it onto my laptop but knew that would do anything because i get no signal/beep when I attempt to scan the barcode that i printed out.

i don't know what to tell you Steve its in the system for comics. There should be a list we can print out or save for all the name variations when naming images we upload. and its there as well. but that doesn't help with naming conventions i know to replace the "\" with a - but thats not working for this.

I have an LP 1/LE edition to add but when I go by the standard of naming it LP 1-LE its not working. So wondering for all the different styles in CB is there a master list for how to name a pic to upload? Thanks

Had the same issue while in Canada last week while shopping. My collection was no longer in the mobile app or the wanted reports I created. Only the value was showing.

Can we have previous selections separate in both selections? Is it a bit of a pain to have to keep changing the input selection when you go from one to the other?

Thanks, sorry, I'm just now seeing this one. I guess I'll need to upgrade what I have. One last thing on this topic... When you right-click on a title you have the option of Print Price Labels and Identification Labels. Is there a way to set defaults for both of them? It falls in line with the above. No matter which one I click I have to change. I print two labels, one with just the barcode and the other with the comic information and pic like the above.

Yes. I have tried that the few times above that i mentioned when reinstalling CB2023

Yes i am able to do that. I am now able to scan in barcodes from comics but still unable to scan in the barcodes CB creates.

Update. I looked at the order and even though it said Upgrade to ComicBase Archive + DX Laser Barcode Scanner 11/27/2017 My laser I think is actually the DX Laser Mark 2 Model. The DX ones aren't usb and mine is. So I downloaded https://www.comicbase.com/Support/Easy_Setup_Guide_CB_DX_Laser_Mk_2.pdf Used the reset then tried the Easy Setup. Still not working. So reset and tried the Expert and still not working. Unistalled the CB2023 Archive and reinstalled it and the scanner Easy Setup and still no dice. Its not even finding the barcodes on the comics. Its transmitting all the digits as i see it in the Find screen but still coming up with

I do not have the oroiginal that came with it. I went to the site and printed out the one listed there chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.comicbase.com/Support/CB_DX_Laser_Scanner_Setup.pdf Now when i even type in the B#######D code it tells me "No Results Found". Not one of them is working. So now i fear none of the Barcode along with the numenclatures work. It is now not even scanning in the comics barcode. This is #FUBAR

It is the DX-Laser one. I just looked in my order archive so its the first one you all released.

I have the wired-with-stand version from you all from a few years back. On the bottom, it says XL-626A. Thanks Have a trade-in and Up option? ?

Thanks, for those workarounds, as I did start doing it that way. Just wanted to add a suggestion for future editions that may have been thought of but not implemented. Hopefully being able to run report parameters could be implemented to allow better tracking, filing, and separation based on publisher and not just comic title. In the early stages of my having CB, I took the time (I was bored) to run the reports based on Comic Titles. Then I would notate on the PDF the draw location of that collection. At least then, I could store each PDF under Marvel, DC, or Indie and merge those files. That got old fast as a solution for ongoing tracking, retriveal, and storage maintenance.

Right now, the Labels show you most of what you see on screen for the title i.e. Title, Variation, and Condition. Would be great to be able to print the pub date as well and as seen on the screen. Also right now I'm printing two labels because, for some reason no matter what I do, my barcode scanner scans in the comics with no problem but when I go to print the label, the scanner won't scan the barcode the system created so I manually type in the system created 9 digit nomenclature under the barcode that comes in the identification Label. So is there a way to have the label print out the first suggestion (date) along with Price, Bacrodes with Nomenclature, and for the sake of room Storylines or writers and artists if Bacrodes with Nomenclature is selected? Right now i'm taking the non-picture price list barcode with the storyline and writers and artists label and placing it on the to back and the Identification Label with Cover Pic and barcodes with nomenclature on the back bottom of my bagged and boarded book. But would prefer to have just one. If i can ever figure out the scanner issue I would stick with the Price one (with the added date feature.
