Printing barcode labels
Print price and barcode labels for your products, on a label printer or on A4 label sheets — and scan them at the till.
Open the labels
Open Labels in the menu, or start from where you are:
- on a product, press Print labels: a label for each of its sizes and colours;
- after receiving goods, press Labels in the message, or Labels for this delivery on the purchase: a label for every piece that arrived.
To add another product, search for it, or scan or type its code under Or scan or type a code. Each line has a box for how many labels it gets.
Choose the size and what it shows
- Size — the labels in your printer. A roll of 50 × 25 mm is the most common; A4 sheets of 65 or 24 labels go through an ordinary printer. For another roll, choose Custom size… and type its width and height.
- The name, the size or colour, the price and the barcode are always on the label. Tick MRP, when it's above the price and Shop name to add them.
- Barcode — the item code UDS POS gave the product, which every scanner and the till read. Or the item's own barcode, if the maker printed one on it.
This computer remembers your choices for the next time.
Press Print labels. In the print window:
- Choose the label printer — or your ordinary printer, for A4 sheets.
- Open More settings. Set Paper size to the label's size (A4 for sheets), Margins to None, and Scale to 100.
- Untick Headers and footers.
- Press Print.
Print one label first, and scan it at the till: the product should come up. If the barcode is cut off or too small, check the paper size and the scale.
