You will need to print out the QR codes (or optionally use a mobile device) for your photo session. It is designed to be printed out on a standard size paper (8.5" x 11" in the USA).
These QR codes can also be scanned by the customer to take them directly to their photos. So once you have photographed the subject you can give them the printed out QR code to take home to scan later.
Once you have created the job / gallery, click the QR Passcodes tab. You will have the option to "Print QR Codes Without Subject Data" or if you have imported entries, "Print QR Codes With Subject Data".
1) You do have subject data
Once you have created the job / gallery in Sytist, go to the QR Passcode tab and click the "Print QR Codes With Subject Data" option. You can still give the subject the QR code print out which they can scan to access their photos. But if you have contact data (email) you can also email the customers the passcodes when the photos are ready.
2) You don't have and won't have subject data like name, contact information, etc...
Once you have created the job / gallery in Sytist, go to the QR Passcode tab and click the "Print QR Codes Without Subject Data" option.
It is important that the subject takes home the paper with the QR code printed on it because it is the only information they will have to access the photos.
