Printing QR Badges or Barcodes

Print QR Badges or Barcodes for teachers to scan in order to award Points or purchase Rewards.

Written by Amanda Banik

The ID Scan feature in LiveSchool enables teachers and students to streamline Point tracking and accessibility through QR badge or Barcode scanning. Each student receives a unique QR badge or Barcode that serves as their passport to LiveSchool data, allowing for faster Point awards and Rewards redemption, especially when working with students who aren't on your typical Roster.

Accessing QR Badges or Barcodes to Print

In the sidebar, go to Setup and click ID Badges. Once there, customize your ID Badges and print.

Utilizing ID Badges

On the Points screen, click ID Scan in the top right corner.

Once you click ID Scan, the camera option will open, along with three methods of scanning:

Print

For quick adherence to an agenda, planner, or ID,
​we suggest you print on labels.

Print the PDF produced in the download. For longer-lasting QR Badges, we suggest printing on cardstock paper and laminating, but office paper works as well!

Sample QR codes

For full-size badges, like the kind that would fit on an ID card use the following settings:

  • Paper Size = Letter

  • Pages Per Sheet = 1

  • Scale = Default

  • Print on Both Sides = Off

Paper Size = Letter  Pages Per Sheet = 1  Scale = Default  Print on Both Sides = Off

To save paper and print more QR Badges on a page, use the following settings:

  • Paper Size = Letter

  • Pages Per Sheet = 2

  • Scale = Default

Paper Size = Letter  Pages Per Sheet = 2  Scale = Default

Skip the Printer: Digital ID Badges

Students can also show their badge from the LiveSchool student app. They open My ID and show the QR code. A digital badge uses the same QR code as the printed one, so every LiveSchool scanner reads both as the same student. You can use printed badges, digital badges, or both.

To turn them on, go to Setup > ID Badges and click the Digital IDs tab. Learn more in Digital ID Badges.
