# Print packing slips

> Print a packing slip for an order by picking your packing slip template.

Use this guide if you want a packing slip to put in the box with an order. By the end, you'll have a printed packing slip that lists the items and the shipping address, without prices.

## Before you begin

- Packing slips use their own template. New stores get one called **Default packing slip**. Stores that moved from the older version of Invoice Falcon have **Classic packing slip**. You'll find it in **Templates**.
- Packing slips are on every plan. On the Free plan, printing a packing slip counts toward your monthly limit of 50 orders, but an order you already printed or emailed an invoice for doesn't count again. See [How the monthly invoice limit works](https://help.invoicefalcon.com/monthly-invoice-limit/).
- A packing slip can't be set as a default the way invoices can. You pick the packing slip template each time you print.

## What customers will see

The packing slip only reaches the customer in the box. It shows your logo and address, the shipping address, order details such as the order number, and each item with its quantity. The default packing slip leaves out prices and totals, so it's safe to include in the package.

To change what it shows, open the packing slip template in **Templates** and edit it in the visual editor. See [Customize a template in the visual editor](https://help.invoicefalcon.com/customize-a-template/).

## Set it up

### Print a packing slip for one order

1. Open your Shopify admin and click **Invoice Falcon** in the left menu.
2. Click **Orders** in the app's menu.
3. Click the order number in the **Order #** column. The order's page opens.
4. In the **Templates** sidebar on the right, click the radio button next to your packing slip template, for example **Default packing slip**. The preview changes to the packing slip.
5. Above the preview, open the **Actions** menu and click **Print**. The packing slip opens in a new tab.
6. Print it with your browser's print command (Ctrl+P on Windows, Cmd+P on Mac).

To save it instead, click **Download PDF** in the same **Actions** menu.

The template you pick only applies while you're on the order's page. Next time you open the order, it shows your default invoice template again.

### Print packing slips for many orders

1. On the **Orders** list, tick the orders you want.
2. Click **Print invoices** in the bar that appears.
3. In the **Template** dropdown, choose your packing slip template.
4. Click **Start bulk print**, then download the file from **Bulk actions** when it's ready.

See [Print or download invoices in bulk](https://help.invoicefalcon.com/bulk-print-and-download/) for the full steps.

You can also print packing slips without opening the app, from Shopify's **Print** menu on an order. See [Print invoices from your Shopify admin](https://help.invoicefalcon.com/print-from-shopify-admin/).

## Check your setup

1. Print a packing slip for a test order.
2. Check that it shows the shipping address and every item with the right quantity, and no prices.

## Troubleshooting

### The packing slip shows prices

You most likely printed with an invoice template. Check that your packing slip template is the one selected in the **Templates** sidebar before you click **Print**. **Default packing slip** never shows prices.

### I printed an invoice instead of a packing slip

The Orders list icons always print your default invoice template. Print packing slips from the order's page after picking the packing slip in the **Templates** sidebar, or choose the packing slip in the **Template** dropdown for bulk printing.

### I don't see a packing slip template

Check the full list on the **Templates** page. If you deleted it, contact support to get it back. New designs from **Create template** are invoice designs, not packing slips.

### I want two different packing slips

Open your packing slip template in **Templates**, open **More actions**, and click **Duplicate**. Edit the copy, then pick whichever one you need in the **Templates** sidebar when you print.

## FAQ

### Can I make the packing slip print by default?

No. Defaults can be set for orders, draft orders and credit notes only. Pick the packing slip template each time you print.

### Does printing a packing slip change the invoice?

No. The invoice and its number stay the same. The packing slip is the same order shown with a different template.

### Can I print a packing slip from the Shopify order page?

Yes. On the order in your Shopify admin, click **Print**, choose **Invoice Print Action**, and pick your packing slip under **Template**. See [Print invoices from your Shopify admin](https://help.invoicefalcon.com/print-from-shopify-admin/).

### Can I add product images or SKUs to the packing slip?

Yes. Open the packing slip template in **Templates** and turn on the product details you want in the visual editor. See [Show product details on invoices](https://help.invoicefalcon.com/show-product-details/).
