In Epic, turning off label printing is usually controlled by the label workflow or an automation rule, not by one universal switch. The exact fix depends on whether you mean inpatient labels, receipt labels, or an auto-print setup tied to Epicor/BarTender-style printing.

What to check

  • Look for a printing rule, BPM, or directive that triggers on the event you care about, such as receipt, save, or status change.
  • Check whether the printer is being launched from a form action, since some Epic label screens print only when you choose the label action manually.
  • If you are using an external print integration, make sure the connector or automation is not set to auto-print or duplicate jobs.

Common ways to stop it

  1. Disable the auto-print condition tied to the transaction or record change.
  1. Remove or change the label printer assignment in the relevant workstation, department, or form-reprint setup.
  1. If the label is coming from a print options window, uncheck any “always show” or auto-print option if available.

Practical example

If labels print when a receipt is posted, the likely fix is in the receipt- related rule or directive, not in Epic itself. In that case, administrators usually edit the condition so it no longer fires on that event.

Important note

There is not enough public documentation to give one exact click-path for every Epic setup, because label printing varies by module and local configuration. The safest answer is that an Epic analyst or system admin usually needs to change the printing rule, printer mapping, or automation behind the label action.
