(Business Central Online does not have any limitations regarding included label reports in Report Print)

VersionLimitation
OnPrem BC20 or later

The label reports are included, but they use a 2D Data Matrix barcode font as described by Microsoft here.

You will need to purchase and install the IDAutomation2D barcode font from https://www.idautomation.com/barcode-fonts/2d/datamatrix/

You can also use other fonts, but this will require you make new reports or layouts. Different fonts might also require a new barcode encoder.

OnPrem BC16 to BC19

The label reports are not included, but you can make your own reports with barcodes as described by Microsoft here.

You will need a barcode font and a barcode encoder. Please notice you will need to make your own barcode encoder for these BC versions.

OnPrem BC15 and earlierReport Print feature is not supported


Can I use both solutions at the same time?

...

When the "Print" -function is called from the Main menu or an action on the mobile device all available labels from either printing solution are displayed together (i.e the list of reports will be a combination of Mobile Reports and Cloud Print Templates).

Be aware, that printing via a Windows driver (e.g. using a PrintNode connector) can overwrite the printer's own settings. You must therefore ensure the settings in the printer and Windows printer driver are identical. For Zebra label printers, please see details here: https://supportcommunity.zebra.com/s/article/Printer-Settings-Change-When-I-Print-a-Label 

Users will not notice which of the two technologies they are using if configured accordingly.
