Price Labels & Part Labels

The introduction of multiple new label types has caused this menu to now be a sub-menu of the RF print routines. 

On newer systems, the 'Part Labels' menu option will launch a new menu:

1. Part/Price Labels

These labels will be printed on your company's standard label stock. 

*** If you have changed label stock size, you must run the calibrate option before printing***

The default label type is a price label printing price level set in the parameter file. If those options are satisfactory, press [Y]. If not, press [N] and then indicate which price level from the inventory control > file maintenance > product master maintenance is to be printed. These can be found on screen 2 options 55 and 56.

3. Pallet Labels

The pallet label is a label that will print on a standard 8x11" sheet of paper using the standard RF report printer selection.

These are meant to be printed and attached to a pallet prior to being lifted into a bin. This will allow you a larger label to convey information about the product wrapped on the pallet and the qty currently on the pallet

You will need to scan a barcode, or press tab and select part/category.

Once you have selected the information, you will be presented with the standard RF print menu and an 8"x11" sheet will print with the following pre-filled information:

• Part Barcode
• Category
• Part Number
• Description
• Username currently logged in
• An empty field with the heading 'Qty:' where you can handwrite the qty currently on the pallet

4. Configure QLN

This option allows you to send a command to the QLN printer that will auto-calibrate the label size of the labels currently in the printer.

This option MUST be run any time you change label sizes.
