Bulk printing is a time-saving feature that lets you generate multiple documents at once for selected orders. With the WooCommerce Shipping Labels, Dispatch Labels, and Delivery Notes plugin, you can bulk print shipping labels, dispatch labels, and delivery notes.
Steps to Bulk Print Shipping, Dispatch, and Delivery Notes
- From the WordPress dashboard, navigate to WooCommerce > Orders.
- On the Orders listing page, select the orders you want to generate documents for.
- To select multiple orders, tick the checkbox next to each order.
- From the Bulk actions dropdown, choose the required option:
- Print Shipping Label
- Print Dispatch Label
- Print Delivery Note
- Click on Apply.
Preview Before Printing (Optional)
If the Preview before printing option is enabled under Invoice/Packing > General Settings > Advanced, you’ll first see a preview window where you can confirm settings before printing. To learn more, check out this article: Generating Document Preview Before Printing.
- When enabled, you’ll be directed to a preview screen before the final print dialog.
- When disabled (default setting), the browser’s print dialog opens directly with the generated document.
Example
Here’s an example of Shipping Labels generated for multiple orders using the bulk print option:

Hi,
I have the free version. Shipping labels used to appear full page even when selecting bulk printing, labels selected where printed one below the previous but full width of the page each. Since last updated they are forced to 4 printing labels by row so everything is not well adjusted. Could you tell me how to fix it?
Thank you very much.

Hi Carlos,
Printing multiple shipping labels in a single page option is currently available in the premium version of our plugin. You may purchase our shipping label add-on WooCommerce Shipping labels, Dispatch labels and Delivery notes to achieve it.

I have the free version so barcode is selected by default and can’t be changed. When I print the label: tracking number is empty and barcode is missing. Help please.

Hi Ann,
Since the barcode is generated based on the invoice number data, kindly ensure that the invoice number is generated for the orders that you are trying to print.

You can turn off any unwanted fields from shipping label settings. Also the label size accordingly.
