Set up printable products

Three setup paths

• Assign a prepared family: use an editable color-changing template across matching products.
• Use Shopify product images: retain the actual product photography and map print regions to its views.
• Publish a prepared product: start from a Total Print Hub product blueprint, edit it, and sync the merchant-owned product to Shopify.

Assign at catalog scale

1. 2.1

   Open Products → Product Setup.

2. 2.2

   Choose a prepared family or an existing merchant template.

3. 2.3

   Choose product, collection, tag, vendor, product type, SKU, or supplier-style matching.

4. 2.4

   Preview the matched products before applying.

5. 2.5

   Save the assignment and open one matched product in Studio to verify colors, variants, sides, and regions.

Important color behavior

A reusable template can contain the complete colorable product shell, but Studio must still show only the color variants available on the product the customer selected. Product variants remain Shopify-authoritative.

Re-sync without losing another Shopify edit

1. 4.1

   Open the prepared product and review its local pending changes.

2. 4.2

   Choose Sync to Shopify.

3. 4.3

   If Shopify changed after the last successful sync, stop and review the conflict instead of overwriting it.

4. 4.4

   Choose Keep Shopify to leave the remote product unchanged while preserving the local draft, or choose Use Total Print Hub and confirm the overwrite.

5. 4.5

   Reload the linked product and verify title, description, media, variants, pricing, publication, and inventory state.
