The Barcode Print Queue module in Xilnex Mobility allows users to create and manage barcode label print requests directly from their mobile device. Users can add items and specify the desired print quantities into a queue. Once finalized, the module generates a PDF file containing the QR code, which represents the entire queue.
This QR code can then be shared with office staff, who can scan it using the Barcode Printing module in Xilnex Classic, the scan will populate the printing list automatically, allowing staff to print the labels using the company's preferred custom barcode formats.
This module aims to solve the limitation of Bluetooth printer integrations, where the barcode label format is fixed and hardcoded, offering no flexibility for users who require multiple barcode formats, sizes, or content layouts. By shifting the actual printing process to a centralized desktop environment while keeping the queue preparation mobile-friendly, businesses gain the best of both worlds, mobility and customization.
