Qr codes not printing properly

[Doc49]

I am trying to print QR codes that have been generated and saved as a GIF file.

When they print I get a series of thin lines and no properly generated QR code, even though it looks fine on screen. 

I have tried changing the file format and nothing seems to work. 

Any ideas?

I have a HP Deskjet 2700 printer

No idea that involves printing a GIF format file.

I might be missing the point, of course.

Windows

Use Snip to capture the QR code you want > save content as a .JPG file > Print

If you are not using Windows, replace the word "Snip" with whatever screenshot / capture application you have.

If this occurs, then the browser printer settings must be changed. The printing layout must be adjusted so that the margins match the 1/8 inch x 1/2 inch label margins of the Avery label paper. 2. This can be achieved by either manually setting all margins to 0, or selecting Borderless 8.5 x 11 in.

Yeah Dragon Fur this didn't work, I tried snip and Gyazo (I use for taking screenshots) and neither worked.

Unfortunate.

If I run across anything that you might not have seen, I'll post back.
