Print unused copy barcode labels
To print unused copy barcodes
Note: Catalogers can print copy barcode labels in numeric order to facilitate distribution of barcodes. To do so, in the Sort by list select Barcode.
- Follow the steps in the blue bar above, and then click the Unused tab.
- If you are a district cataloger or reporter, select a single library from the For list.
- If you want more than one barcode label for each copy, change the number adjacent to Print.
- Enter the quantity of labels needed.
- Enter the starting barcode number.
You can enter your highest barcode number, or, if you would like to fill gaps in your number sequence, enter a lower number. Destiny prints only barcode numbers that are not in use; it skips any barcode numbers that are used or part of a defined vendor barcode range.
To discover (and copy, if desired) your next available barcode number, click the symbology name in brackets.
If the barcode number you enter is more than 7 characters, it must match the symbology that appears in brackets. If it does not, you will need to change the symbology in Site Configuration before generating the barcodes. - Select the Include check box to print your library name on the label.
- Select your label stock and the starting label.
- Click Run Report.
- When the Report Manager opens, click View to open the label report.
- After positioning your label stock in the printer, use Adobe Reader's toolbar button to print the labels.
Label contents Unused labels contain the copy's scannable barcode, the eye-readable number, and, if selected, the site name.
Print order Unused labels are printed in barcode number order.
