How to set up label templates

You can set up your label templates from either the Organisation Settings level or the Customer Settings level. At the Organisation level, the template will apply to all customers; however, if you set the template up at the Customer level, it will only apply to that particular Customer.

How to set up label printing

You can print your labels either by exporting to PDF or printing them directly to a label printer via CartonCloud Connect. 


Printing to PDF

All labels can be exported to PDF from within CartonCloud and be printed from your computer using your computer's printer configurations. 

Positives of printing to PDF

  • Easy to set up.

Limitations of printing to PDF

  • Not as seamless/efficient as printing directly to a label printer using CartonCloud Connect.

  • Can only print PDF from the web application (cannot be performed from the mobile device).


Printing to PDF settings 

When printing to PDF, there are two different ways to generate the labels, either as 4-per-page (suitable for printing to A4) or single-label-per-page (suitable for printing to a label printer).

You can configure the way that labels are generated on a per-customer basis from within the Customer Settings:

  • Navigate to the relevant Customer. 

  • Click Edit.

  • Select the Transport Management tab. 

  • Scroll down to the Labels section. 

  • Select the PDF Label Page Type.
