Spine Labels

Printing Spine Labels with Sierra

 

1. Double click the “PW Service Labels” icon on the desktop
   
2. If a box with the text “Print Wizard is running in demo mode…” appears, you will not be able to use the program until you are authorized by MCS.  Tell your supervisor.
3. If a box with the text “Could not initialize Listen Service Labels,” it is likely someone else is still logged on to the computer and has the program activated.  If the other user is not available to close the program under their logon, restart the computer. 
   
4. Open the item record in Sierra
5. Click “Tools” [upper left]
6. Click “Queue Monographic Labels to Print”
7. Close the item record
   

You can order labels for multiple books before moving on to the next step.

1. Click “Create Lists” [lower left] 
2. Click on an “Empty” list
   1. Because of a rare glitch, it is best if you can find one between two other empty lists
   2. If the lists are grey instead of black, you will need authorization.  Tell your supervisor. 
      
3. Click “Copy” [upper right]
4. Find and click on your list. It will probably be near the bottom and  worded as “Labels for batch printing for [your logon initials]”
5.   Click “OK”
6.   A box will appear with the text “Do you want to remove the file being copied from?”
7.   Click “Yes”
