Through6 Integration
Order Desk can pull your print on demand orders in from your shopping cart(s), sync your print details into them, and then submit them to Through6. As Through6 fulfills the orders, the shipment details will be sent back to Order Desk and on to the original shopping cart if your store is set up for it.

For more information on what these product settings within the Through6 integration are for, please refer to the Print on Demand Product Settings guide.
Shipping Class Match
If the shipping methods you set up in your shopping cart(s) don't match the shipping method names Through6 uses, they won't know what methods you intend for them to use. When this happens, the default mail class applied above will be used instead for all of your orders.
To tell Through6 what methods you want them to use, you will need to match your method names to theirs. This can be done in the shipping class match section. For detailed instructions on setting this up, please read through the shipping class match guide.
Sending Orders to Through6
Getting your orders ready to send to Through6 will take some set up time. For a detailed walkthrough of how to use Order Desk with your Print on Demand orders, please read through our Print on Demand Fulfillment guide.
