    CategoryExplanation
    Printer Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for a printer.
    Job Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for a job. This label template is used in a production order, typically linked to a print instruction. This can e.g. be used to send a box label to the box printer at the start of a job, containing the information regarding the job (e.g. lot/order number/item/item number/customer).
    Location Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for a location.
    LPN Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for an LPN. In addition to the LPN number, additional data (item, batch, THT,...) can be displayed on the label.
    Anonymous LPN Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for an LPN. Contains the LPN number. The label does not contain any additional data. These labels can be printed in advance to be attached later to a new LPN (for pre-reception, production, repackaging,...).
    Sample Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for a sample. In addition to the LPN number, additional data (item, batch, THT,...) can be displayed on the label.
    Anonymous Sample Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for a sample. Contains the sample number. The label does not contain any additional data. These labels can be printed in advance to be attached later to a new sample.
    Order Label A label with an identification that can be scanned for an outbound order. These labels can contain specific information regarding the outbound order, like customer, address and other customer or order related information. These labels can e.g. be printed to be applied to an LPN for outbound. The intention is to provide 1 label per order.
    Serial Number A label with an identification that can be scanned for a serial number.
