To print all of your tags at once...
|
- Use the menu command Cellar, Print a Report.
- Select the report style "Tag Inventory"
- Press the "Tag Layout" button
- Press the printer button
|
| If ever you want to print a subset of tags later, modify the report (as I have in the example below) so that only the required tags are printed. |

I suggest you practice using the sample cellar and a blank sheet of paper so you know what to expect.
