Step 1: Install Printer Drivers

Follow the link below for your printer manufacturer’s (Zebra or Dymo) drivers.

Step 2: Install Lister Connect

After installing printer drivers, download and install Lister Connect.

Step 3: Restart Browser

After installing printer drivers and Lister Connect, you will need to restart your browser window to continue.

  • Close and reopen all your browser windows before continuing

Step 4: Start Lister Connect

Ensure that Lister Connect is running on your computer. It should appear in your system tray at the bottom right of the screen.

NOTE: Lister Connect must be running locally on your PC anytime you want to print from Lister.

If the Lister Connect icon isn’t showing in the system tray, try the following:

  1. Open the Windows menu

  2. Type “Lister Connect” into the search bar

  3. Click the Lister Connect icon

Step 5: Select Printer in Lister

After approving the browser certificate, the printer will become available in Lister. This step connects your printer to Lister so you can begin printing. Login to Upright Lister by following this link and complete the following:

  1. Click the printer icon in the top right corner

  2. Select your label printer from the dropdown menu

  3. Set your label format

    • Note: It's essential that your "Label format" is set correctly. If you are using a Zebra printer, set your format to "ZPL." Anything else should be set to "PDF"

Lister will auto-connect to your printer as long as Lister Connect is running on your computer. If Lister Connect is not running, Lister will not be able to print.

If the printer is not connected, ensure Lister Connect is running by following step 4 above, then press reconnect.

Step 6: Allow and Remember Action Required Popup

A popup may appear when clicking "Connect" in the Lister Connect dropdown menu from step 5:

  1. Click the checkbox next to "Remember this decision"
