If you’ve built your IT stack on one platform or you’re considering this type of shift, you already know many of the benefits: one connected system of record instead of a patchwork of disconnected tools. Data flows between sales, operations, and the shop floor without manual re-entry.

Workflows can then be coordinated end to end — an order, a work order, a shipment can all trace back to the same record rather than living in separate silos. And because everything runs on one platform, IT gets a single environment to secure, maintain, and build on. For manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers, that means less time spent stitching systems together and more time spent quoting, producing, and shipping. 

That said, even a well-built tech stack can have one persistent gap: printing. 

And it shows up everywhere: pick lists in a warehouse, labels on outbound shipments, and work orders on the shop floor. A general-purpose print tool bolted on doesn’t carry the same benefits as the rest of a tech stack. It’s one more system to manage, and one more thing that can break. Printing at scale requires a solution on the same platform as Rootstock, which is natively built on the Salesforce Platform. With printing operations on the same platform, teams don’t have to bounce between systems, manually export PDFs, or rely on printer setups that don’t scale as the business grows. 

This is a gap that Mavtron Print helps to bridge. Rootstock has partnered with Mavtron to bring its printing solution to ERP customers — now available through your Rootstock sales rep or account manager. 

Traditional printing  

At first glance, printing may not seem like a huge problem for organizations — until they’re trying to perform printing at scale, from within their CRM and ERP platform, across a fleet of printers that live in different locations, using different protocols, and serving different purposes. Common pain points we hear about include: 

  • Manual steps to get a document out of Rootstock or Salesforce—and onto a printer.
  • Printer fleets that are hard to manage or monitor centrally.
  • Labels and receipts that require specialized printer languages (like Zebra ZPL) that standard print tools don’t support.
  • Field and mobile teams who need to print away from a reliable network connection.

None of these are huge issues, but they present the types of inefficiencies that quietly drive time and costs until someone decides they need a better way to handle printing. 

Why Mavtron Print  

Since Rootstock is a Salesforce-native ERP, we looked at a printing solution the same way we look at other capabilities we want to deliver to customers: what’s the best-fit, most native solution to our environment?  

Mavtron Print stood out because it was built for this purpose — not adapted from a general print tool but designed from the ground up to work inside ERP and CRM flows. 

Mavtron brings printing into the same environment where your data already lives, with support for: 

  • Rootstock-native and Salesforce-native printing — no separate system to manage, no manual export/import steps. 
  • PDFs, labels, and receipts — handles the core document types that most manufacturers and distributors rely on.
  • Zebra Printer Language (ZPL) support — for label and receipt printing that utilizes this format.
  • Fleet-wide visibility — see and manage print jobs across every printer, in every location. 

For teams running a distributed footprint — multiple warehouses, shop floors, or field service locations — that last point matters as much as the printing itself. Instead of decentralized, hard-to-support print setups, teams have one place to see what’s happening across their entire printer fleet. 

Extending printing to the field with Print Mobile 

Printing doesn’t stop at the warehouse door, and neither does Mavtron Print because its mobile version provides this same platform-native approach to teams in the field, such as those on a delivery route, at a job site, or anywhere a wired connection isn’t available.  

With Mavtron Print Mobile, users can print labels, receipts, and documents directly from the mobile app with a single tap, sending jobs over Bluetooth straight to a mobile Zebra printer. Because it works over a direct device-to-printer connection, it holds up even where a network connection doesn’t exist — this is a meaningful difference for teams whose work may happen outside a company’s four walls. It’s the same experience a warehouse and shop floor team already leverages, just built for those who carry their work with them. 

What customers are saying 

Manufacturers already using Mavtron Print have pointed to the same benefits: setup that used to take real IT effort now takes minutes, and support that used to be a bottleneck is fast and genuinely helpful. 

In addition, teams that were manually generating and printing documents have been able to cut that process out, freeing up time that used to go toward manual document handling. 

Across the board, the feedback has centered on ease of setup, responsiveness of support, and how much manual work simply disappears once printing lives inside your ERP and CRM. 

What this means for you 

Your team may be dealing with many of the same printing pain points discussed here, including manual document handling, disconnected printer fleets, label printing that requires specialized support, or field teams that need to print without a network connection.  

Now, Mavtron Print is available to Rootstock customers. If you want to learn more or see it in action, reach out to your Account Manager or your Technical Account Manager. They can help answer your questions or connect you to the right technical resource.
