User guide

Print shipping labels straight to your TSPL thermal printer over WebUSB.

1. What you need

  • Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or another Chromium browser with WebUSB (Windows, macOS, Linux or ChromeOS).
  • A TSPL/TSC-compatible USB label printer (e.g. OCBP-401DT), connected by USB.
  • Label media matching your settings (default: 102 × 152 mm die-cut labels with a ~3 mm gap).

2. Installing LabelJet

  1. Open the LabelJet page in the Chrome Web Store.
  2. Click “Add to Chrome” and confirm with “Add extension”.
  3. The LabelJet icon appears in your toolbar. Tip: click the puzzle-piece icon and pin it.

3. Connecting the printer (first time)

  1. Click the toolbar icon and choose “Open print window / labels”. The print window opens in a normal browser tab.
  2. In that tab, click “Connect printer”.
  3. Pick your printer in the browser’s USB chooser and confirm.
  4. The status turns green: “Connected: …”. The permission is remembered, so it reconnects automatically next time.
Important: connect from the print tab, not the small toolbar popup. The USB chooser needs a normal tab (with an address bar) to appear.
Only one tab can use the printer at a time. If connecting fails with “in use”, close any other print tab (or app using the printer) and try again.

4. Printing labels

  1. Print your shipping label as usual. The label window opens automatically with all labels.
  2. Each label shows a black/white preview and a checkbox. Untick any label you don’t want.
  3. Adjust Rotate if the label is sideways, and Threshold if it’s too thick/thin. Click Re-render to refresh.
  4. Click “Print selected labels”. Labels are sent one by one.

No label window? Click “Choose PDF…” in the print window and pick a label PDF manually.

5. Settings

6. Troubleshooting

ProblemFix
USB chooser doesn’t appearMake sure you’re in the print tab (not the popup) and using Chrome/Edge/Chromium.
Printer not in the listClick “All devices”. Close any other tab/app using the printer. Replug if needed.
“In use by another tab”Close the other print tab (only one tab can use the printer at a time).
Printer wobbles and prints nothingGap/paper setting is wrong. Set the correct gap (~3 mm) and label size, and calibrate with the printer’s feed button.
Label prints white-on-blackTurn on “Invert”.
Text too thick/thinAdjust the B/W threshold and re-render.

The log at the bottom of the print window shows the real error messages.
