How to create DYMO label templates
DYMO Label
In order to start printing labels in inFlow Cloud, you’ll need to start creating labels in your DYMO software. For a complete guide on making labels in DYMO’s software, take a look at this DYMO Label software user guide file.
inFlow’s Label printing
Did you know you can create and print labels with inFlow? We’d encourage you to switch to the new label printing.
With the DYMO label printing, you need to create the label templates outside of inFlow. Once done, you need to add them to inFlow to print labels. This can be tedious because it means getting to know another software (DYMO Label) to use a feature in inFlow.
We’ve built a Label Designer to improve label printing. No more leaving inFlow to make label templates, and printing labels is just as easy as it was with DYMO. You can still use your DYMO printer, along with others.
For complete steps, take a look at the inFlow Label printing article.
Before you start
Please make sure you install the DYMO Label software, not DYMO Connect! At the moment, inFlow only works with files made from DYMO Label with the .label extension and not .dymo.
We also recommend using Code 128 for the Barcode type.
Creating labels in DYMO Label
Once you know how to make labels, you’ll need to add reference codes to them. These reference codes are placeholders for the information you have in inFlow.
For example, if you want the product name/code from inFlow to print on a label, you will need to create a label with the inFlow reference name, “Item Name.”
Adding reference codes to your labels
- Open one of your labels in the DYMO label software.
- Right-click on the part of the label you want to add an inFlow reference to.
- Select Properties.
- Click the Advanced tab.
- In the Reference name field, type in the inFlow code you want on the label.
- Click OK when done.
We also recommend using Code 128 for the Barcode type.
Please see below for a complete list of inFlow codes you can add to your labels.
