Installing and activating the SmartPrint app makes it easy to quickly and efficiently print business documents, including Packing Slips, Shipping Labels and Invoices.
This document will walk you through the step-by-step installation process and also show you how to use the app.
Step 1: Install the Uphance SmartPrint App
The Uphance SmartPrint App can be installed on Windows or the Mac OS. To install, open any warehouse and activate your Uphance SmartPrint account.
Upon activation, the system will automatically generate a username and password for you, which will come in handy later.
Next, select the operating system you use, download and install.
Step 2: Log in to Your SmartPrint Account
With the app installed on your machine, the next thing you will want to do is to log in to it using the login credentials generated by the system.
Note that you can always access the app from your application tray:
Step 3: Add Your Printers
The third step is to add the printers connected to your machine to SmartPrints. Note that these are the printers being picked up by the SmartPrint app.
Select the printers you want and add them.
Step 4: Add Printer Configuration
The next step is to configure the printers you added. To do so, click the plus icon, select a template type, pack station, computer, printer and paper size.
Note: You can add as many printers for each template type and packing station. This means if you attempt to add a printer for a template you've previously added and the same pack station, you will get an error message.
Step 5: Printing Your Documents
With SmartPrints all set up, you can now proceed to print your documents(packing slip, shipping labels and invoice).
You can do so automatically(by simply clicking the Ship button) or manually.
Note: To ensure printing works without issues, be sure to select the right packing station when shipping an order:
It's also important that you add a shipping carrier and service to the shipment to avoid running into potential errors.
