Getting Started
Welcome to Qivra PO Label Printer — the fastest way to turn received inventory into scannable barcode labels. The app counts the quantities you actually accepted (not what was ordered), and prints them on the label paper you already own: Avery die-cut sheets, Dymo roll labels, or Zebra thermal printers.
Key Features
Section titled “Key Features”| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| Print what you received | Labels are counted from accepted quantities per shipment — a 95-of-100 delivery prints 95 labels, rejected units excluded |
| 4 label sources | Received transfers · product search & filters · supplier CSV (including Stocky exports) · order line items |
| Print exactly where you left off | Tap the first unused cell of a partially used sheet and printing starts right there |
| Avery-accurate presets | 5160/5167/18163/5163 on US Letter, L7160 on A4, Dymo rolls, Zebra sizes — geometry follows manufacturer specs |
| Trusted barcodes | EAN-13 / UPC-A / EAN-8 / UPC-E validated with checksum before printing; Code 128 for any SKU |
| Template designer | Stack barcode, SKU, title, price, and custom text lines per label — live WYSIWYG preview and a free test render |
| Free calibration sheet | Print a numbered grid on plain paper to verify alignment before committing a real label sheet (never counted toward your quota) |
| Works automatically | When stock is received, the app prepares the print job for you and announces it on Home |
| Multi-language labels | Translate custom text on your labels into your shop’s languages |
| PDF + Zebra ZPL output | Print via any browser (PDF) or export raw ZPL for networked Zebra printers |
| Shopify Sidekick | Ask Shopify’s AI assistant what needs labelling or how many labels you have left — it can check the app for you |
How It Works
Section titled “How It Works”- Pick a template. Three starter templates are pre-installed on first launch — open Label templates to customize them.
- Choose where labels come from. A received transfer (quantities are what you accepted), a product filter, a CSV file, or an order.
- Print. The app renders a PDF that opens in a new tab — print it at Actual size on your label paper.
The 3-Step Setup Guide
Section titled “The 3-Step Setup Guide”When you first open the app, the Home page shows a Get started guide with three steps:
Step 1: Choose a label template
Section titled “Step 1: Choose a label template”Three starter templates are pre-installed for you:
| Starter template | Paper | Layout |
|---|---|---|
| Retail price | Avery 5160 (Letter, 30 up) | Title · price · SKU on one line, barcode digits, barcode |
| Warehouse SKU | Avery 5167 (Letter, 80 up) | Bold SKU + low 6 mm barcode — fits the small return-address cell |
| Shipping 4×6 | Zebra 4×6” roll | Large title, variant, tall 50 mm barcode, SKU |
Click View templates to open the template list and customize any of them. See Label template overview.
Step 2: Print your first labels
Section titled “Step 2: Print your first labels”Create a print job from a received transfer, product filter, order, or CSV upload. The 1-label test render is free and doesn’t use your monthly quota. See Quick start: print your first labels.
Step 3: Check your sheet alignment
Section titled “Step 3: Check your sheet alignment”Print the calibration sheet on plain paper and hold it against your label sheet before committing a real one. Alignment depends on the printer, so re-check whenever you switch printers — even on the same paper. Calibration prints are always free. See Calibration and sheet alignment.
Where to Find Things
Section titled “Where to Find Things”The app navigation has these pages:
| Page | What you do there |
|---|---|
| Home | Setup guide, “Stock arrived” banner, recent jobs, plan usage, sheet alignment checks |
| Label templates | Create, edit, duplicate, and delete label templates |
| New print job | Build a print job from transfers, products, CSV, or orders |
| Print history | Reprint, open PDFs, and download files from the last 30 days |
| Translations | Translate custom text on labels into your shop’s languages (open /translations in the app) |
| Contact us | Send feedback, feature requests, or bug reports to the team |
What You Need
Section titled “What You Need”- Any printer you already own — an office inkjet/laser for Avery sheets, or a Dymo / Zebra / Rollo thermal printer. The app produces PDFs (and ZPL for Zebra); no hardware is sold or required from us.
- Products with SKUs or barcodes in Shopify. Variants without a barcode still print — the SKU is printed as text instead.
- No app embed or theme changes — everything runs inside your Shopify admin.
