Set Up Multi-Page Printing in the Portal
Table of Contents
Set up a printer profile in the portal that prints multiple pages of labels every time when selected on the app, saving time by printing more labels at once.
This feature allows for:
- Including more information that may not fit on one label.
- Adding information for the same menu item in multiple places on a container, like on the top, bottom, or sides.
This feature is available in the Printer Profiles tab in the portal.
