Finding Items
When you are ready to print barcode labels for your items, select the Manage barcodes and print labels tool from ScanWay’s main page. Once in the tool, you’ll need to search for products or variations in the Catalog Search input bar. Once complete, the search results will appear in a list below the search bar.
There are additional filters that can be used available in the Filters section. The In Stock filter will only search for variants with stock available. Below the In Stock checkbox, you should see your shop’s locations. Select a location to filter search results to that location only.
If a barcode image exists for an item that has been found, there should be two buttons on the right side of the listed item. Clicking on the View Barcode Image button will result in a raw download of the barcode’s image. If you would prefer to design and print barcode labels from other software, you can use this image.
Clicking on the Preview Labels button will take you to a page where you can see a specific item with any saved templates. When you select a template from the templates list, you’ll see a preview of how the item will appear with that template. If you have any questions about whether or not an item’s information will fit on a template, this is where you should check.
You can also print this preview, if you’re looking to just print the one item.
Printing from Templates
After you’ve selected which items you want to print labels for, a Print Labels button should appear at the top of the search results card. Clicking this button will bring you to a page where you’ll see some options for printing your labels. You’ll need to pick a template, and set how many of each label you want to print.
There are three convenience buttons to set the count of labels for each item to 0, 1 or the quantity of the items currently in stock. Otherwise, you’ll need to click on each item and edit the count of labels you want for that item.
You can print templates with products and variants that don’t have barcodes generated. The area originally used to display a barcode will be empty.
