Auto-print Shopify inventory transfers, orders, and labels
Shopify transfer labels and order packing slips print straight from your browser, with nothing to install. Add the free print bridge and they print themselves.
Install AutoPrintEmail on Shopify
Claim a printer for each location and your transfer labels and order packing slips print themselves. No exports, no extensions.
See Shopify pricing, billed through Shopify.
Install from the Shopify App Store
One click. AutoPrintEmail asks for read-only scopes only (inventory, transfers, orders, locations, products). Free to install on Shopify.
Print from your browser, nothing to install
Every document lands in Print queue inside your Shopify admin. Click Print and it opens in your browser's normal print dialog, so it goes to any printer you can already reach.
Optional: add the print bridge and stop clicking
A small free app on the PC at your receiving station, one per location. A transfer is received or an order is paid and the paper is already there, with nobody at the screen.
Two flows ship today. A barcoded transfer receipt lands on the destination location's printer the moment a transfer is received, and a packing slip prints when an order is paid (opt-in per shop). Pick slips and refund slips are next on the roadmap, with shipping-label printing via label providers (Shippo, ShipStation) to follow.
Shopify events supported today:
Multi-location shops don't want every printer firing on every transfer. Each Shopify location claims its own printer through the desktop app. The receipt for a transfer headed to Retail Store prints at Retail, not at the warehouse. Two staff at one site can claim the same location for redundancy, and both printers fire.
Thermal, laser, inkjet: DYMO, Zebra, Brother, HP, anything Windows / macOS / Linux can print to. No driver tricks.
PDFs render server-side from the Shopify webhook payload. You print them from the browser, or the print bridge picks them up and prints them for you. No browser plugins either way.
Verify the full loop (server, desktop, printer) before you rely on it. One button inside Shopify admin.
Based on 2 minutes per transfer to export, format, and print manually, plus the latency of someone remembering to do it.
The Shopify app handles the connection, settings, print queue and audit trail, and printing from it goes through your browser like any other document. The print bridge is for the half a browser cannot do: it runs on the PC that owns the printer and prints without anyone clicking. The two sides talk over our backend with signed webhooks and short-lived presigned URLs.
Free to install on Shopify. You pay per print station through Shopify Billing, on your normal Shopify invoice, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial (no card required to start). The desktop app is a free download.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. AutoPrintEmail is a native Shopify App Store app. Install it from the Shopify App Store with one click, no email forwarding involved. Once it is in, you can print every document straight from your browser. The print bridge is an optional extra download for the PC next to your printer, and it is what makes documents print by themselves with no clicks.
Two events print today: inventory transfers (barcoded transfer receipt when a transfer is received) and orders paid (a packing slip, opt-in per shop from the Settings tab). Fulfillments created and refunds are on the next-event roadmap, and every new event is a single toggle. Shipping-label printing is planned via label-provider integrations (Shippo, ShipStation): labels are carrier-issued, so we auto-print them rather than generate them.
Each Shopify location is mapped to a specific printer from the desktop app. When Shopify fires an event with a destination location, only that location's printer prints. Multiple staff at one location can claim the same site for redundancy, and both printers fire on the same event.
Anything your operating system can print to: thermal label printers (DYMO, Zebra, Brother QL), inkjet, laser. AutoPrintEmail hands rendered PDFs to the OS print pipeline; no driver shenanigans.
Free to install. You pay per print station through the Shopify Billing API, charged on your normal Shopify invoice, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial (no card required). The desktop print bridge is a free download, there is no separate off-Shopify charge.
Yes. Every document lands in Print queue inside your Shopify admin, and Print there opens your browser’s normal print dialog, so it reaches any printer you can already reach. What the free print bridge adds is the unattended half: with it installed on the PC at your receiving station, the paper is already there with nobody at the screen.
Yes. The embedded Shopify admin has a "Test print" button next to every claimed location, plus a per-document Test print in the Templates tab (transfer receipt and packing slip). Each fires a sample document end-to-end so you confirm the loop (server → desktop → printer) without waiting for a real event.
