How to set up printing with Skrym
This page explains what you need to do in order to set up label printing to work with Skrym.
- Log into Scope and create a Printnode account for your organization. We suggest creating one per warehouse location.
- An account name can be a maximum of 16 characters long
- This is currently done on the Integrations > Printers page
- Only admins can do this for their organization
- Make sure to store your Printnode login details, as Skrym will not store this for you
- Download the Printnode Client from their website.
- Install and open the Printnode Client
- You will need to log in with the account you created in step 1
- You will need to allow Printnode to access keystroke events on your computer
- Log into the Printnode client using the login details you entered when creating the account in step 1
- Add the printer you want to use
- Make sure to first connect the printer to the computer and change the name of the printer on the computer, as this will propagate to Printnode
- For Mac
- When adding the printer on a Mac, go to System Settings > Printers & Scanners > Add Printer/Scanner or Fax and choose the label printer you have connected.
- In the "Use" field, make sure to choose the required driver, normally "Select software" > Zebra ZPL Driver.
- You can add a printer by clicking the "Add Printer" button in the Printnode client
- You can also add a printer by going to the Printnode website and adding a printer there
- The printer and computer should now appear in Scope on the Integrations > Printers page
- If using an external system like Ongoing, you may need to add a computer alias for the printer to enable matching the request from Ongoing to the correct printer.
Troubleshooting
- If your printer doesn't seem to print the correct label size, you may need to explicitly set the label size for the printer output in Printnode
- To set the size, open the Printnode client and enter the length and width in inches in the fields
