# Label Templates

Label Templates let you design printable labels for items or shelves. These are typically used in warehouse or retail environments where physical labels are needed for products, bins, or shelf edges.

## Accessing Label Templates

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Open the NetSuite Admin view

Switch to **NetSuite Admin** in <code class="expression">space.vars.productName</code>.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Open Printers

Click **Printers** in the left sidebar.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Open the Label Templates editor

Make sure the **Templates** tab is selected, then click **Label Templates**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Template editor

The Label Template editor works the same way as the Receipt and Invoice editors:

* **Left panel:** Template settings and section controls.
* **Right panel:** Live preview of the rendered label.

## Template actions

| Action                     | Description                                    |
| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| **Create New Template**    | Start a new blank label template               |
| **Load Existing Template** | Load a previously saved label template to edit |

Enter a **Template Name** before saving.

## Customising the label

Use the **Custom HTML** field to design the label layout. The **Recommended Variables** panel shows available data fields you can insert: for example, item name, SKU, barcode, price, or location.

For the full variable reference (item fields, format specifiers, store variables), see [Print Templates Reference](/netsuite-admin-guide/overview-2/printers-and-templates.md).

## Saving a template

Click **Save** at the top of the page. The template appears in the **Available Templates** list.

## Tips

* Label size matters; design your template to match the physical label stock loaded in your label printer. Common sizes include 2" × 1", 4" × 2", and 4" × 6".
* Barcodes can be rendered using HTML and CSS if your label printer supports it, or use a barcode font.
* Keep label content minimal: name, SKU, and price are usually enough for most retail use cases.
