Summary

This reference Article explains an optional add-on utility of LABEL MATRIX labeling software called LMWPrint/Autoprint.

Information

LMWPrint/AutoPrint is the automation utility for LABEL MATRIX that allows labels to be printed automatically from external data sources without a user opening LABEL MATRIX and manually clicking Print. The add-on is available for purchase on each license. LABEL MATRIX version 2025 is the last version to offer this add-on.
It runs outside the normal design interface and is commonly integrated into business processes and scripts.

How to Determine if you have LMWPrint with your software

Examples

Command line:
LMWPRINT /L=ProductLabel.qdf /C=500
This tells the LMWPrint engine to print a specified label template and quantity automatically.
