# ASN labels for Paperless-ngx on Avery labels
|
|
|
|
The [recommended workflow](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/usage/#usage-recommended-workflow) of [Paperless-ngx](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/) uses QR codes for ASN (archive serial number) labels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This script helps creating them using Python. It outputs a PDF for printing on the label sheets. Make sure to set print size to 100%, not _fit to page_ or similar.
|
|
|
|
Other Avery (or competitor's) label sizes can be added to `labelInfo` in `AveryLabels.py`. All other settings are configured at the top part of `main.py`.
|
|
|
|
Use these settings for an initial position test to align your printer:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
mode = "text"
|
|
debug = True
|
|
|
|
labelsAlreadyPrinted = 0
|
|
labelsCorrupted = 0
|
|
labelsToPrint = 1
|
|
|
|
positionHelper = True
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Settings
|
|
|
|
Configurations available in `main.py`:
|
|
|
|
* `labelForm`: Select your label sheet version from the `labelInfo` list in `AveryLabels.py`.
|
|
* `mode`:
|
|
* `qr`: Print a QR code and a text next to it showing the ASN.
|
|
* `text`: Print a free text on the label.
|
|
* `text`: The free text used for `mode = text`.
|
|
* `subLabelsX`/`subLabelsX`: Print multiple labels on a single cutout of a label sheet.
|
|
This is helpful for small label sizes even though your physical label cutout sizes are bigger.
|
|
Use a steel ruler and a sharp box cutter knife after printing to split up the labels.
|
|
* `firstASNOnSheet`: The first ASN number that is/has been printed on the current sheet. Set to `1` on your initial sheet.
|
|
* `labelsAlreadyPrinted`: If you have already printed a some labels on the current sheet, use this to skip overwriting them.
|
|
* `labelsCorrupted`: Due to misprints or other reason, some labels on the current sheet might have gotten corrupted. This skips the unusable labels.
|
|
* `labelsToPrint`: How many labels you want to print now.
|
|
|
|
More settings:
|
|
* `debug`: For initial calibration, a solid border line will be printed that should line up with the cutouts on your sheet. In `mode = text`, label text will be ascending numbers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `positionHelper`: Small dots will be printed in the corner of (sub-)labels. Useful as subtle sublabel cutting guides.
