Printing a PDF Label

Updated over 4 months ago

When filling a Prescription or printing a Patient Label, clicking the corresponding button will initiate a PDF request in the bottom left hand corner.

Your computer’s default PDF viewer will automatically open. Clicking Print in your PDF viewer opens a print preview, allowing you to direct the label to be printed to the desired label printer on your network.

💡 Important Note: When you switch from one printer to another, your computer changes the default printer to the last printer you used. Please always double check your printer destination so as not to inadvertently print Chart documents or Invoices to your label printer.

Default Print Preview:
1. Select the label printer you want to print to
2. Paper Size: this is your label size
3. Layout: Portrait Orientation
4. Scale %: 100% or Actual Size. The goal is to not have the line borders print out on your label
