Using Applications

Applications give you access to the latest versions of approved label templates and Solutions. Applications you open automatically update so you can immediately use up-to-date Solutions and print the correct labels.

Before you start working with shared Applications, install Web Client on your computer. Web Client installation is necessary only before using the shared web applications for the first time.

  1. Open your browser and type this address (your Web Printing URL):

    https://myaccount.onnicelabel.com/print/

    ... where myaccount is the name of your Loftware Cloud.

  2. You land on the Loftware Web Printing page. If you haven't installed any Applications before, click the link to download and install Loftware Web Client on your desktop.

  3. Sign in to Control Center:

    The sign-in window pops up automatically. Sign in using your Microsoft or Google account.

    To stay signed in, enable the Remember me option in the Loftware Cloud sign-in window. Web Client will not prompt you to sign in the next time you open your Application.

    If you don't select the Remember me option, Web Client signs you out from your assigned Application when you close your browser window.

    Note

    If you're having trouble signing in with your Google account, click on Use external browser for sign in. This will redirect you to a browser sign-in page.

    Important

    If you lose your Internet connection, you can still open your shared Application for up to 30 days after you open the Application while being online.

  4. If you are authorized to use more than one Application, the Applications selection dialog asks you which Application do you want to run. Select the preferred Application and click Run web application.

Your Application opens in Loftware Web Client and it's ready to use.

If you selected the Remember me option (step 3) while signing in, your Application window displays your user name in the Application's title bar. If there are other users working with shared Applications on your computer, you can click Sign out (in your user menu) and the next user must sign in using their own Loftware Cloud account credentials. By clicking on your user name you access your user menu.

From the user menu, you can:

  • Switch between your multiple shared Applications.

  • Get notified about minor Web Client updates.

Print operators can access Web Client and your shared Applications by entering your Web Printing URL in the browser or from their computer's start menu. Depending on your User privileges, you can also access your Applications from the Login page and from the Control Center's Dashboard page.

Tip

Make a bookmark in your browser If you receive Applications from different Control Center deployments.

Depending on your Access Roles, you can also get quick access to your shared Applications from your Control Center's Dashboard page.
