Step-by-Step guide

Once in the Label Maker page, you can complete your label set up. See the Help page for more info on how to do this:


If you select the Size of Label = Custom, the label will be sized according to the data you have selected to include.

If you select Fixed, it will give you the option to select a width, length and spacing size and will adjust the mock up on the right of the page.

Underneath the label mock up, select how many labels you want on a page and tick to include the outline or not when you print.

Please note the guidance around margins.

Save your changes and click the print preview when you are ready to print.

You may need to adjust your printer setting to select the correct size paper etc.


You can also use the Label Library once you have saved your label sizes where you can build a print queue of multiple dish labels to print.
