Tag Printing

This topic explains how to print price tags. You can print tags from POS documents, Inventory, Purchase Orders, Vouchers, Slips and Memos. 
Use the Options button to access options for printing tags. On POS documents and adjustment memos, the menu includes two options: Print Selected Item Tags and Print All Tags. These buttons enable users to print tags for the currently selected item in the item list, or for all items on the document. On other document types and Inventory, the menu has a single Print Tags option.

Prism Default Tag Designs
Prism comes with the following default tag designs:

Customize Tag Designs using Document Designer
You can customize the default tag designs in Document Designer. Navigate to and launch DocumentDesigner.exe (C:\Program Files (x86)\RetailPro\DocumentDesigner\). Select Merchandise Tags in the Area dropdown. In the Document dropdown, select the tag design you want to edit then click the Edit button. Make any needed changes and save the design.


Configure Print Preferences for Merchandise Tags
Navigate to Admin Console - Node Preferences - Hardware - Print Preferences and select Merchandise Tags. Select options like default Printer Type and default Print Design. Save the changes.

In Prism 2.3 and later, you can set a default quantity (OH Qty, Doc Qty or # Copies) for the printing of merchandise tags in Print Preferences. Previously, you could set the default number of copies for merchandise tags but there were no options for setting the default to OH Qty or Doc Qty. Enabling users to configure defaults for tag printing makes printing more efficient and helps avoid printing more or fewer tags than desired. For example, you might want Associates at POS to only print tags equal to the Doc Qty (to replace a damaged or missing tag). 
The setting in Print Preferences sets the default; however, users can change quantity at run-time, if needed. In Prism, go to Admin Console > Node Preferences > Hardware > Print Preferences. Select Merchandise Tags and navigate to the Tag Copy Defaults area.
You can set the default quantity for tag printing in the following areas: POS Transaction, Purchase Order, Transfer Order, Voucher, Inventory (Document Quantity disabled), Adjustment Memo, Slip, ASN
