Label settings

The vast majority of GLS customers use the "Laser/Inkjet A4 - 2x2" option.

This is the type of print that prints 4 labels per page and you can select the position from which the print starts before the actual print.

Each option has its own specifics, it depends on the type of printer you are using and how you think the final label should look.

Label printing

To print individual labels, use the "Print labels" tab. In this tab, you can select the required services, the amount of cash on delivery or the date of shipment for each shipment.

This option is suitable if you want to print the labels individually.

First, fill in the sender and recipient information and other required information for shipping - number of parcels, COD amount, variable symbol and the date the parcel will be picked up at the sender's address. Then select the services you need. Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.In the case of printing 4 labels per page, you will save the labels to the queue one by one, via the "SAVE" button. It is then possible to print from the position that suits you.

Note: If you do not see the "SAVE" button and A4 with numbers from 1st - 4th, you need to select the A4 2x2 printer type in "Settings/Settings".CAUTION: You must select the service selection after entering the sender and recipient information. If you do the opposite, the service will not be selected.

If you will be printing multiple labels at the same time, use the "Import label data" option.

Use "Import label data" to upload shipment data in bulkin the "Label Printing/Label Data Import" tab you upload your generated csv file

This option is recommended for clients using a changing address database, or clients using a custom system capable of exporting data for packages.

The advantage over printing labels individually is that the data can be imported from a saved file and the program will bulk print selected packages, or bulk enter service or package pick-up requests.
