Additionally, you can also edit these templates or make your own from scratch. BarTender’s label editor is easy to use thanks to its drag-and-drop and no-code nature. Thus, you can design your own label swiftly.

After you’ve finished designing your label, the next step is to print it. BarTender is compatible with various label printers across multiple brands. Be sure to download the driver that suits your printer model beforehand.

Print Labels Just by Tapping Azumuta

With the Digital Work Instructions module, your operators can print labels with just a single tap. They only need to tap the “Print label” button on their work instructions. Then, Azumuta will do the rest.

After an easy setup, of your operator’s printer, BarTender, and Azumuta will be connected. Then, by adding this step to the work instruction, Azumuta will send an automated request to BarTender, which will print the desired labels on your operator’s printer. Afterward, Azumuta will automatically proceed to the next instruction step.

This is a time-saving improvement. Your operators no longer need to open multiple software and navigate back and forth between them just to print labels. Everything can be done from within the Azumuta Platform. It also lowers error possibilities – as your operators can only print the predetermined label set by the admins.

Similarly, it only takes a few seconds for admins to add a label printing task to their operators’ work instructions. Your admins only need to input the properties of the desired labels, and that’s it. Our software will automatically forward everything to your operators’ work instructions.

Why Is This Integration Beneficial For You?

The Azumuta-BarTender integration improves your plant’s production speed, precision, and compliance with regulations. Here are some of the most evident benefits:

Automated Label Printing Technology

This integration allows you to assign label printing as one of the steps in your digital work instructions. In this step, your operators will only need to tap the “Print label” button, and the requested label will be printed immediately. Afterward, the operators’ screen will automatically shift to the next instruction step.

This automation allows you to print large batches of labels quickly. Your operators no longer need to manually select which labels to print and then print each batch individually.

Better Traceability and Compliance

With the ease of printing labels, you can now assign a scannable serial number label for each product being made in your plant. This makes identifying products for quality control an easier task.

For an additional layer of traceability, you can also manage customer complaints by tracking back released product records & checking their entire production process using our scannable serial number label.

Furthermore, BarTender templates and its label designer help you to comply with various standards and regulations, such as the GS1 Standards, GHS Classifications, and the EU Food Allergen Labeling.
