1. Print product labels in Odoo by default
The standard printing in Odoo can be done in the following way:
You go to the Individual product, click the ‘Print labels’ button.
You select the label format you’re going to print, then click ‘confirm button’.
After that a PDF document will be downloaded. Select the PDF document, open it, overview it and then send it to the printer manually from your computer.
The printer must be connected directly to the computer. Agree, it’s not very convenient?
That is why our team decided to simplify this process by developing the Odoo Direct Print module. Now, you don’t need to download PDF or ZPL labels before sending them to the printer. Everything is done automatically in one click.
2. Print barcode labels in Odoo by Odoo direct print PRO

3. Print product labels directly from the warehouse

First, you need to install the Ventor application.
Let’s imagine the situation when we are walking through the warehouse and see that there are some products with damage and no labels.
Go to the ‘Quick info’ menu.
Find the product with an existing label, find it by scanning.
And now we you can print product label directly from Ventor:
Now you can attach your label on the box.
