Purpose: In this article, you will learn how to optimize your label printing by fitting up to 8 BRT labels on a single A4 sheet. This new functionality allows you to use the available space on your A4 paper more efficiently.
Previously, users could print a maximum of 4 BRT labels per A4 sheet, often leaving much of the paper unused. With the new BRT Label Printing feature, you can print up to 8 labels on one A4 sheet, significantly reducing paper waste and optimizing your shipping process.
Important Considerations
- BRT-Only Orders: This feature only applies when you are exclusively printing labels for BRT orders.
- Mixed Carrier Shipments: If your shipment includes carriers other than BRT, this setting will not apply, and the general label format will be used.
- Pack & Go Users: For those using the Pack & Go feature, the current setup only allows the first label position to be filled on the A4 sheet, leaving the other positions blank.
Important: Before printing, you need to tick the Show Print Options box to select the desired starting position:
