How to print 2” by 6” strips

Postby DJConnor » Sun Sep 23, 2018 7:49 pm

Hi Tim, I have a DNP 620a printer with the WPS Pro Router, along with 4 by 6 media. I’m trying to print 2” by 6” strips. How would I accomplish this? What would place as the settings in the collage size area of the app, etc?

If you need more details from me please let me know.

Hi Connor,
You need to do 2 things:
1) when you connect wifibooth to the printer, make sure you select the "queue" (means the way the DNP WPS unit prints to the printer) that corresponds to printing strips. It will have 3 numbers in it, like 2x2x6.
2) in Wifibooth event settings -> layout, make sure you select the two strips option at the top (the icon of the two strips)
Please write a review for Wifibooth on the Apple App store! Indie developers like me really need people like you to review their apps. Instructions on how to write a review: http://goo.gl/w8NsDI.

Great, you are welcome! If you’re able to leave a quick review in the app store it would help me a ton!

Tim I have the same printer that uses Role media. It can Cut 2x6 strips. Basically it is 6 inch roll media enough to do 400 4x6 pics or 800 2x6 pics.

My question is as followed.
1. I can’t use the 1 strip?
2. I want to Maximize the use of the media when I do the 2strips it prints two copies of the same three pictures. But when I do the single strip it cuts the three pics in half on two single strips?

Is there a way to just do a single 2x6 strip like a normal Photo booth without having to print two of the same?

hi there please check out our new app, https://booth.events. It has proper template support for 2x2x6 prints or whatever you like.
With Wifibooth it is possible but you need to take exactly the right number of photos... ie. 6 photos for 2 x 2 x 6 where each 2" strip has 3 photos
