Introduction to Shipping Labels

Use the shipping labels selection to print shipping labels for orders or invoices. Shipping labels will only be printed for orders or invoices that contain valid ship-to addresses.

This selection prints shipping labels in batch mode. If you would like to print a shipping label immediately after an order or invoice is entered, you must define a shipping labels device for the register and specify that you want to “print instantly”. Refer to the devices section of the Registers chapter of this documentation.
