Labels and the label designer
Floormode prints bin labels, item labels and receiving labels as PDFs, or straight to a connected printer. The label designer sets the size, the barcode and what the label shows.

Where to print labels
Section titled “Where to print labels”Bins: Inventory → Bins (all bins, or the ones a generator just created). Items: from the item’s drawer or a receipt. Receiving: one label per booked unit from the receipt.
Paper and label size
Section titled “Paper and label size”Pick a sheet layout or a roll. The designer shows the placement; the PDF prints all positions even when the preview shows only the first ones.
Barcode formats
Section titled “Barcode formats”Code 128 is the default and reads on every scanner. QR codes hold more; hide the readable text under a QR code when the value is long. A GS1-128 or GS1 Data Matrix label needs the item’s exact GTIN-14 first: see GS1 barcodes.
Printing tips
Section titled “Printing tips”Print at 100 %: turn off “Fit to page” and browser headers. Test one label and scan its barcode before a batch.
Save a design
Section titled “Save a design”Save the design to reuse it; your team sees the same designs. The default design is what the one-click prints use.
Printer profiles and corrections
Section titled “Printer profiles and corrections”A connected printer has a profile with its paper and offsets. If labels print slightly off, correct the offset in the profile rather than in every design.
Items without a barcode
Section titled “Items without a barcode”Floormode prints a label with the item’s own barcode; an item without one gets a Floormode barcode you can scan on the floor.
