How to get the right Google Form link
Open your form and click Send in the top-right corner. Choose the link tab, tick Shorten URL, and copy the link that starts with forms.gle. The short link makes a simpler QR code that scans faster. Don't copy the address from your browser while editing the form — that's the editor link, and respondents can't use it.
Before printing, check the form's Settings → Responses. If “Restrict to users in your organisation” is on, people outside your school or company won't be able to open it. If “Collect email addresses” or “Limit to 1 response” is on, respondents will need to sign in to Google.

Good to know
The QR code always opens the same form, so you can edit questions after printing — the link doesn't change. Only creating a brand-new form changes the link.
