A design you are still working on is not printed anywhere. To get it to your print stations you activate a version, then decide which stations use it.

Statuses

Versions

Each design has numbered versions: v1, v2, v3 and so on.
  • You edit a draft freely.
  • Click Save version in the designer to save the label as the next version. You can add a note about what changed.
  • An active version never changes. If you edit it, LUXIMA starts a new draft for you, so the label on your stations stays as it is until you activate the new one.

Activate a version

1

Activate

In the designer, click Activate with the version number. Or click Activate on the design’s card on the Label design page.
2

Confirm

In the designer, LUXIMA asks you to confirm. On the card, it activates straight away.
Stations that use this design print the new version from their next sync. The version that was active before becomes Archived.
To get a new version onto a station at once, sync the station: Sync now in the Windows app’s settings, or pull down on the home screen in the mobile app.

Go back to an earlier version

On the design’s card, expand the other versions, click Restore on the one you want, then Activate it.

Set the company default

The company default is the label every station prints unless it has been given its own design. On a design with an active version, click Set as company default. The design that was the default before stays active, but only stations linked to it keep printing it. If you have not set one, the Label design page reminds you: “No company default yet”.

Give a station its own design

Use this when different stations print different labels, for example sew-in tags on the sewing line and carton labels in packing. From the design: on its card, click the Print stations line. Tick the stations that should print this design and click Save. Unticked stations print the company default. From the station: on the Print stations page, choose a design in the station’s Label design dropdown. A design needs a ready version before you can link it to a station.

Operators can still choose

When your company has more than one active label, operators at a station can switch with Change template for a single job. The station goes back to its own label afterwards.
