🖨️ Print Labels from the Orders List
The MyDHL module allows you to generate ZPL labels directly from the orders list in PrestaShop, making the shipping process even faster for standard orders.
⚠️ This function is only compatible with ZPL printing (Zebra printers) and must be explicitly enabled in the module settings.
📋 How It Works
Once the option is enabled, a dedicated button will appear in the actions column for each order.
By clicking the button, the module will attempt to generate a ZPL label for the selected order.
⚙️ Label Generation Rules from Order List
-
Only the DHL service configured in the general module settings is used.
-
Shipping details cannot be modified (e.g., address, email, phone), as they will always be taken from the PrestaShop order shipping address.
-
Cash on delivery and insurance are applied automatically only if set in the general settings (e.g., insurance threshold or COD payment).
-
For any customization (e.g., customs declarations, recipient changes, manual service selection), you must enter the order page.
📦 Packaging Management
Within the print button in the orders list, a dropdown selector is available where you must specify the packaging to use for shipping.
Its behavior depends on the module setting “Automatically save box dimensions to product measurements”
-
If disabled, the default packaging configured in the module will always be suggested.
-
If enabled:
-
For single-product orders (1 item, quantity 1), the module will attempt to automatically detect the product’s dimensions and match them to a configured packaging.
-
If a packaging other than AUTO is manually selected and the product has no registered dimensions, the packaging dimensions will be saved to the product.
-
✅ Requirements for Functioning
-
The order must be eligible (with a valid shipping address).
- The label format must be set to ZPL
-
You must have configured at least one default packaging and the DHL service for order list printing in the module.
-
The PC must be connected to a ZPL-compatible printer – The Zebra BrowserPrint software must be installed and able to detect the printer.
💡 Tip
This function is particularly useful for quickly handling standard shipments and optimizing workflows for those who process a high volume of similar orders.
For complex or international orders (e.g., non-EU with customs), it’s always recommended to use the full order page management.
