Label Printing using a Microsoft Windows Printer

Selecting "Item Labels" from the menu will print Item and shelf labels. Item and shelf labels may contain the following information:

The "Print Label" buttons on the Customers | General screen can be used to print Billing and/or Shipping address labels using Avery-Dennison address labels on your system's laser or ink jet printer.
