Label templates available in Nex

Labels in Nex help organize and identify your products, simplifying daily routines and streamlining sales processing. Labels can be printed on both standard printers (A4 paper) and coil/roll label printers. To choose the ideal template, you should check:

  • The label sheet code (for A4 paper).
  • The label measurements (width and height).

Important Note: Nex may experience compatibility issues with Elgin L42, Zebra, Brother QL700 and QL800 label printers.

Nex offers several pre-defined templates, such as TAG, shelf (gondola), and adhesive/sticker labels. You can choose from available models according to your needs and preferences. In general, the system provides templates containing:

  • Product description or name.
  • Standard price and promotional price.
  • Barcode.
  • Store logo or store name.
  • Product notes/observations.
  • Extra code and weight.

Barcode types used by Nex

To ensure scanning works perfectly in your daily routine, Nex uses two main standards:

  • EAN13: Standard 13-digit manufacturer factory barcode.
  • INT 2_5: Ideal for internal codes, using even-numbered numerical sequences (4, 6, or 8 digits).
