Working with User Label Printers (WULP)

Purpose: Use the Work with User Label Printers Screen to assign a user to a particular printer used to print labels.

Available labels: You can assign a user to a specific label printer for the following types of labels:

RF Carton Label

RF LPN Label

RF Return Label

RF Item Label

RF Bin Location Label

• Pick Pack Item Label

• Additional Pick Control Label

Label printer hierarchy: When a user prints one of the types of labels listed above, the system uses the following hierarchy to determine the printer to use to print the label.

1. Use the printer defined for the user at the Work with User Label Printers Screen.

2. If a printer is not defined for the user, use the default printer defined in the associated system control value for the label.

• For RF carton labels, use the default printer defined in the RF Carton Printer ID (J99) system control value.

• For RF LPN labels, use the default printer defined in the RF LPN Printer ID (J95) system control value.

• For RF return labels, use the default printer defined in the RF Return Printer ID (J98) system control value.

• For RF item labels, use the default printer defined in the RF Item Printer ID (J97) system control value.

• For RF bin location labels, use the default printer defined in the RF Bin Location Printer ID (J96) system control value.

• For pick pack item labels, use the default printer defined in the Printer for Pick/Pack Item Labels (K47) system control value. If a printer ID is not defined in this system control value, the system uses the printer whose printer ID defined in the LabelPrinters Properties File is PPITM_PTR.

• For additional pick control labels, use the default printer defined in the Addl Pick Label Printer ID (L66) system control value. This setting is required only if the Pick Label Print Program (F28) system control value is set to RFPRINT, indicating that you print additional pick control labels to a Zebra printer. See Addl Pick Label Printer ID (L66) for more setup instructions.
