Learn how to print shipping labels in Cahoot. This guide covers the different methods for printing shipping labels. 

Quick Overview: Once labels are created, they move to "Label Ready" status where you can print them individually or in bulk. 
Label Printing Format: Your account is configured to print labels and packing slips on thermal printer by default. If you need a different format (integrated on standard paper, or separate label/packing slip printing), contact Cahoot support to adjust your settings.
🖨️ Printing Shipping Labels in Bulk

After labels are created (either automatically or manually), orders move to Label Ready status, which means your labels are ready for printing.

Automatic Updates: Upon label creation, Cahoot automatically sends tracking information to your sales channels and updates order status, which typically triggers customer shipping notifications.

Bulk Printing

1On the Cahoot Dashboard, click the Label Ready number or go to Print and Ship My Orders in the top navigation.

📦 Using Label Batches for Organized Printing

Label Batches help you organize orders into groups for more efficient fulfillment. You can create batches to group specific orders together and print all their labels at once.

What is a Label Batch? A Label Batch is a group of orders organized together for fulfillment. This lets you control your workflow by grouping orders that should be processed together.
Important: When you print a Pick List, Cahoot automatically creates a Label Batch containing all visible orders and removes them from the Print and Ship My Orders page. You'll be redirected to the Label Batch page.

Creating a Label Batch

1Go to Print and Ship My Orders and click the Use Label Batch checkbox.

Printing Labels from a Label Batch
