Diobox allows you to print multiple badges on a single page using Avery label sheets. This is a practical option when you are using a standard desktop printer instead of dedicated badge printing hardware.
Avery sheet printing works well for events that need a fast, flexible, and low-cost badge setup without specialized equipment.
Key Advantages
Low cost and widely available materials
Quick setup with minimal configuration
Works with most standard home and office printers
Compatible with lanyards, clips, and badge holders
Adhesive options allow badges to be worn without accessories
Pre-perforated sheets eliminate manual cutting
Supported Avery Templates
Diobox includes built-in support for many Avery templates used for badges and name tags. Many Avery product numbers share the same printable sheet layout, with the same badge size, sheet size, and number per sheet.
Because of this, Diobox groups compatible Avery products together when they use the same print specifications. This lets you use one badge layout across multiple Avery SKUs.
Description | Label Size | Compatible Templates |
Pre-Perforated Badges Large Format | 3" x 4" 6 per sheet |
|
Pre-Perforated Badges Medium Format | 2.25” x 3.5” 8 per sheet |
|
Adhesive Badges Standard Format | 2-1/3" x 3-3/8" 8 per sheet |

If your sheet format is not listed, you can still print using custom dimensions. For additional details, see: Print Name Tags on Custom Sheets

Use the checkboxes to select one or more guests, or choose Select All.
Then click Print Badge.
Step 4
Choose Template and Export
If your event includes multiple badge templates, select the Badge Template you created in Step 1. Then select the corresponding Avery sheet layout.
If the selected badge and sheet match exactly, the preview will display Perfect Fit. Otherwise, Diobox will automatically adjust the badge to fit the sheet while preserving its proportions. In this case, the preview will show Scales to Fit.

Additional Settings
Start Position
Use Start Position if part of the sheet has already been used. This allows you to begin printing from a specific position on the page so you can reuse partially used sheets.
Resolution
Under Advanced Settings, you can adjust the resolution if your printer has specific requirements.
The default is 300 dpi, which is standard for high-quality printing.
