Every station runs the same process
Printing and packing vary by station and operator. We standardize pack flows and printer mapping so every station follows your gold standard process.
The Problem
Inconsistent packing causes errors
Each station runs differently. Printers are mapped by memory. The packing process varies by operator. Errors and rework pile up.
Printer confusion
Labels print to the wrong printer. Documents end up at the wrong station. Operators waste time retrieving printouts.
Process variation
Each operator packs differently. Some check orders twice. Others skip steps. Quality depends on who is working.
Slow onboarding
New hires learn by watching. It takes weeks before they pack at full speed without making mistakes.
The Solution
Standardized pack flows
We configure ShipStation's printing and scanning features with your ideal process. Every station runs the same flow with proper printer mapping.
Standardized Pack Stations
- Station-specific printer and device mapping
- Guided step-by-step packing flows
- Scan-to-verify item confirmation
- Document bundling (labels, slips, inserts)
- Box size recommendations per order
- VIP and special handling flags
Station configuration
Each pack station configured with the right printers, scales, and scanners. Documents route to the correct device every time.
Step-by-step flows
Guided packing process: scan, verify, pack, seal, label. Each step confirmed before moving on.
Scan verification
Scan-to-verify catches wrong items before they ship. Immediate feedback when something does not match.
Document bundling
Print label, packing slip, and inserts together. One button press, everything comes out ready to pack.
Box recommendations
Display the right box size for each order. Reduce guesswork and dimensional weight overcharges.
Special handling flags
VIP orders, fragile items, and gift wrapping flagged visually. Operators see what needs extra attention.
