How Tagestry works · 4 steps

From empty canvas to printed label in four moves.

Every Tagestry deployment runs the same workflow. Connect your data, design your label, pick a printer, print at scale. Same in California as in West Virginia.

01
Step 01, CONNECT DATA

Point Tagestry at your METRC, or any data source.

Connect to METRC with your facility API key and Tagestry streams package, harvest, and lab-result data into the designer live. Prefer CSV, PostgreSQL, or a REST endpoint? Those work the same way. Data stays a source, not an export.

02
Step 02, DESIGN THE LABEL

Bind label fields to data on a production canvas.

Drag barcodes, QR codes, cannabinoid panels, and variable text onto the canvas. Click a field, bind it to a METRC property or CSV column, and watch the preview refresh. What you see in the designer is what every Zebra, TSC, and Epson will print.

03
Step 03, CONFIGURE PRINTER

Pick a printer. Tagestry handles the rest.

Native drivers for Zebra ZPL, TSC TSPL, and Epson ColorWorks. Select a printer model, confirm your media size, and calibrate once. Tagestry tunes output per model so your first print is production-ready.

Step 04, PRINT AT SCALE

Fire thousands of labels through the spooler, audited.

Submit a batch and Tagestry queues every record through the selected printer. Progress, retries, and per-label outcomes are logged. Every print ties back to the originating METRC package UID so audit is a lookup, not a paper chase.
