Before-you-print checklist
- Scan the preview from 3 feet with another phone.
- Print at scale 100% (“Actual size”).
- Quality high, not draft.
- Matte laminate, not gloss, so streetlights don't glare.
QR size vs scan distance
Rule of thumb: a phone reads a QR from about 10 times its width.
| QR size | Scans from | Use |
|---|---|---|
| 2 in | about 20 in | Table tent, sticker |
| 3 in | about 30 in | Mic stand card |
| 4 in | about 3.3 ft | Guitar case (this sign) |
| 6 in | about 5 ft | Sidewalk A-frame |
| 8 in | about 6.5 ft | Stage poster |

Static QR vs Encore QR
- A printed Venmo QR is locked to Venmo forever.
- An Encore QR points to your page, so you can switch from Venmo to Cash App, add Apple Pay, or change your name without reprinting.
- It also counts scans.
