Printing Labels
Help Table of Contents

In order to print labels from Harvest Webstation, you must first modify the settings in Harvest to allow label printing for Harvest Webstation users and configure the label properties. Then, you must download and install the LabelPrinting application on the machine that runs Harvest Webstation. See Configuring Harvest Webstation: Enabling Label Printing.

After you have set up label printing, you may print labels for the order. The steps that you must follow depend on if you are running an Internet Explorer or a Firefox web browser. See the appropriate section below for more information on printing labels, or see Printing for general information on printing from Harvest Webstation.

If you receive an error when printing labels, confirm that the label printing settings in Harvest Webstation are configured correctly and that you have security access to all order choices on the order. If an order contains only restricted order choices, Harvest Webstation will not generate labels.

Automatically Printing Labels

If the Auto-print Labels preference option is enabled for Harvest Webstation users, then Harvest Webstation will automatically print labels when you save an order based on the Label Settings preferences established in Harvest. If Harvest Webstation is supposed to print a label and the label format includes the list of order choices, then it will print "RESTRICTED" for each order choice that is restricted, rather than print the order choice abbreviation. See the Harvest online help for more information.

See the Troubleshooting topic for steps to disable automatic label printing. If you disable automatic label printing, you may still click the Labels button in the Unreleased Order Details or Order Details pages to print labels.
