6 Use Prep-n-Print Flex to print a batch of labels each day for kitchen staff to use as their prep list. Created Specifically for Busy Restaurant Environments When restaurant operators don t implement consistent practices for food labeling, the result can be excessive food waste, poor productivity and compliance, increased risks of health code violations and inconsistent food quality delivered to customers. Filling out a label may seem like a small task, but repeating that many times a day can add up to a lot of time spent handwriting labels. And when you re in a rush, writing can become illegible. The Prep-n-Print Flex app enables quick and accurate printing of a range of labels, including shelf life, nutrition, ingredient and grab-n-go labels. And with batch printing capabilities, dozens of labels can be printed in a matter of seconds.

Reportioning of Food into New Pans With the Reprint feature, Prep-n-Print Flex allows an employee to reprint a label with the original data and use by dates to apply to the same food in a new pan. Labeling of Locally Sourced Foods For Chefs who use locally sourced or specialized ingredients, Prep-n-Print Flex allows them to augment and edit their own foods without altering corporate-defined items.
