How to print El HEMA labels

it's really easy, I promise!

El HEMA printers should be printed on the Mediamatic LAB printer. The Lab printer somehow does color better, as well as paper feeding.

1: Finding the right paper

The paper we use is Mondi Color Copy Silk Coated 250g/m2. Reorder number is 139464.

2: Getting it into the right tray

Use tray 1. You can access tray one by pulling down the front flap of the printer. Make sure you have the paper well aligned using the side-guides!

The product numbers are on the backs of the label. The tags.pdf file is organized by product number. To print a certain desired tag, find the page that your product number is on. That is your back page. Then find the front page that goes with it (mostly 1 or 2 pages up).

7: Do it, do it now!

Print your desired number of front pages. Then fill tray 1 with your pre-printed front pages in the way indicated below and proceed to print the back. Tadaa!
