Batch print labels for records in local file

You must set an option to mark records for label printing and then print in batch:

1. Since labels print immediately whether you are logged on or offline, you must select an option that tells the client to print in batch mode:
   1. Click Tools > Options or press <Alt><T><O>.
   2. Click the Batch tab.
2. In the Record Actions area under Perform local actions in batch, select the Label Printing check box.
3. Click OK or press <Enter>. The client keeps your setting each time you open the program unless you change it.
4. Display a bibliographic record from the local save file for which you want to print labels.
   Or
   Select records in a local bibliographic save file list:
   • To select adjacent records, click to highlight the first entry, and then press and hold <Shift> and click the last entry. 
   • To select nonadjacent entries, click to highlight the first entry, and then press <Ctrl> and click to highlight each additional entry.
5. Click File > Print Label(s) or press <Shift><F10>.
   • The record(s) are marked for printing labels in batch mode.
   • The label status in the record's status bar or in the Label column of the bibliographic local file list changes to R (Ready).
6. When ready, run batch processing. For the labels, the client uses:
   • The label format you specified in Tools > Options > Printing. If you do not select one, the default format is SL4.
   • The classification scheme associated with your OCLC authorization or, if working offline with records in the local save file, the classification scheme you define for offline cataloging in Tools > Options > General.
7. (Optional) If you want to switch to printing labels immediately rather than in batch, clear the setting in Tools > Options > Batch.

Tips for undoing or redoing batch label printing:

• If records are selected for batch printing labels (Label status = R for Ready), and you decide not to print the labels, remove the Ready status:
  
  With the record open, or with records selected in the local file list:
  1. Click Action > Set Status or press <Alt><Shift><S>.
  2. Select the Label Print check box.
  3. Click OK.
• If record labels have been batch printed (Label status = C for Completed), but you need to reprint them via batch:
  1. With the record open, or with records selected in the local file list, click File > Print Label(s) or press <Shift><F10>. The Label status changes from C to R.
