Barcode and spine label printing in Koha
Hello! Is it possible to print both barcodes and spine labels on the same sheet? I see Gaylord has a label set, Gaylord LSL04 for both barcode and spine labels. If so, does someone have a template for this or similar? :) David W.

David, So far as I know, that is not possible at present. I know some libraries who are using that type of label use OCLC's Connexion software to print out their labels. I'm sorry I couldn't be the bearer of better nows. Regards, Jared 2011/10/12 Hartman, David W. - GBTS Library <David.W.Hartman@disney.com>

Hi Jared, I see your point, even though you could probably give the correct dimensions of the sheet and choose the proper starting point for the label you probably could only do only one barcode at a time, assuming the sheet is ordered spine label, barcode label on the same row(s).

Yes, a gentleman at this library below was using Koha and using those exact labels - Gaylord LSL04 - (spine, barcode, spine, barcode) - 4 labels across and 6 labels down ..

In all of the work I have done on the labels code, I have never worked with the 'alternating' layout option. I "think" this was originally intended to do this sort of label. That's what it looks like in the code at least. You could give it a try and see. I'm sure it will take some work at developing a template which will work correctly with the LSL04 set. Give it a try and post back the results. Kind Regards, Chris

After a quick look, this is not possible due to the current limitations in the template interface. Expanding the template interface to accommodate this sort of thing would not be too difficult. Assuming the 'alternating' layout type works as expected, the changes to the template interface would be all that was needed. I've opened a bug for such an enhancement. You may find it here: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7015 Feel free to expand on the spec. Kind Regards, Chris

When we first installed Koha, my librarian was insistent on being able to print barcode/spine labels. The labels she had (from Gaylord, I think) had 8 sets of labels per page; a spine label followed by two equal sized labels. We printed the call number, author and title in the first one and the call number, title and barcode in the second. Then we got Gaylord LSL04 labels which have 12 sets of labels per page. I wrote a drop-in replacement for labelprint.pl to handle both of them plus standard address labels 3x10 per sheet for my home library. It's not customizable except by changing the code, which shouldn't be too difficult. But it does the job. If anyone is interested, drop me a line. -- Bob

Do you mean label-print.pl? I'd be interested in seeing it. Kind Regards, Chris

Yes it is label-print.pl. I sent a copy to you and David. Let me know what you think. -- Bob
