This module makes it possible to print specific reports to a label printer that is configured on the user.

To do this, the following must be configured:

  • Flag the report as a label report
  • Define a label printer for the user

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Lets you mark a report as a label report and send it to a dedicated label printer set on each user, instead of the normal printer.

This module adds a label-printing option on top of the printer configuration already provided by the base printing module.

On each report (the technical record behind a printed document), a new checkbox "Report is a Label" appears next to the printer tray setting. When this box is ticked, the report is treated as a label report.

On the user form, a new field "Default Label Printer" is added right after the normal default printer. It can only be chosen from printers that already exist in Odoo; users cannot create a new printer from this field. The same field is also available in the simplified user preferences screen, so a user can set their own label printer.

When Odoo looks for the printer to use for a report, it now checks whether the report is flagged as a label. If it is, the user's default label printer is used; otherwise the standard printer logic applies. This means label reports and normal reports can be routed to different physical devices without changing the report itself each time.

The module touches the report action model ir.actions.report and the user model res.users, and it depends on the base report-to-printer module.
