Barcode Label Printing

This feature allows users to print the respective barcode labels for each product item.
Currently, barcode label printing works only with Honeywell PC42 label printer.
Label printing does not work without setting up the printer under Settings -> Printers.

To use this feature, go to Settings -> Barcode Label Printing.
