Set Up Computers to Print Check-in Badges

Instructions for installing QZ tray on each computer used to print check-in badges.

The latest version of QZ must run in the background on any computer you use to print check-in badges. Technology changes frequently, so you may want to set reminders or auto-updates to keep your version of QZ up-to-date. Doing this prevents printing issues.

  1. Download and install the latest version of QZ Tray. The latest version includes the Java and QZ Tray in one installment. To avoid installment issues, we recommend all users to download the latest version. If you have older versions of these installed separately, you may need to remove those installments and download the latest version for this to work properly.
