Inspected. Printed. Certified.
The Cylindex app is compatible with thermal label printers. Generate industry-accepted labels the moment your inspection is complete.
Our Visual Inspection App works with almost any Bluetooth-enabled thermal label printer. The app generates a label document that you export to the printer. If you’ve already have a bluetooth capable printer, you’re set.
We tested this workflow on our preferrred printer: the SVANTTO Bluetooth Thermal Label Printer, 4×6 Shipping Printer. The instructions below are written specifically for it. If you’re using a different printer, follow your printer’s own pairing and printing steps — the core process will be the similar, but menus and app names will differ.
