Zebra Labels

Print out your orders for Zebra printers, fully customize with your prepaid shipping labels, etc.

• Add in order ID barcodes, return addresses.
  • In the config you can rotate the return address (eg. have it vertical down one side), and position the barcode.
• Customize label padding and margins to suit your label sheets.
• Show a list of products ordered on the same label.
  • In the config you can setup column positions for the various product attributes.
• Add in your company logo: do this in Shipping Address Background Images.
  • If you don't want it to change based on Shipping Method, just include an image with a blank in Pattern.
• You can also rotate the output PDF to suit your printer.

Setting up Shipping Labels

This is an extremely powerful option, and if setup correctly can produce very professional results.

This will save a lot of time from order processing, cut packing and shipping errors, and look great for your customers.

• Add in shipping label images, that change based on the shipping method chosen.
• Add these to the shipping addresses in: Packing Sheets Invoices Zebra Labels
• Just set this option to Yes in each section.
• and then find the Shipping Address Background Images section.

Here I've added two variants:

1. A default option, by leaving the Pattern blank this automatically becomes the default option. Ie. when no other patterns match this will be shown.
2. A 'standard' option. By entering standard in the pattern section, this will match shipping methods with 'standard' in.

I've then gone and clicked Browse for each and added in my edited background image for each option.

• To make your own images, edit the zipfile > _sample_images / _shipping_backgrounds / Shipping_image.psd file.
• You'll likely want to include your business logo in there, and can also include your return address.
• If you find that you need to nudge the background image on the printout, you can do that in the X-Nudge ( [-] = left / [+] = right) and Y-Nudge ( [-] = down / [+] = up) fields.
• If some addresses will match multiple patterns, you can give them a priority as well.
  • Priority:1 will get matched before Priority:2
