I have a Brother QL-500 Printer and a roll of brand new DK-2205 labels. I have used the Multi Order Shipping program successfully many times in the past. In the past month I can not print these labels at all. The USPS/Pitney Bowles program refuses to print them, telling me that my large 2 3/7" labels are the wrong size. And the Java Photo of what the label should look like, shows the label will not print the right size.
I have tried the work around by putting a piece of cardboard under the back 3 pins-- I have tried reloading Java entirely-- I have updated the printing program from Brother AND Still nothing works.
I have looked for help on eBay, and PB's sites and even here. Still no solutions.
We are in the process of uploading a large number of sales on ebay and our private company site for the holidays and need the solution we've paid for to work. $20 plus per roll for these labels I can not even use is a waste of my money and God knows how much time. I can not afford to continue to use Paypal for this, because everytime I need to VOID the postage and go to another solution.
Politely put-- Does anyone have a solution for this? Or When in Hades is Paypal/USPS/PB going to get this fixed?

Hi MWehmeier,
Welcome to the forums!
I'm sorry to hear about the problems that you've been having with your label printer. I'm sure your intention was to make things easier with a tool designed specifically for the purpose of printing labels.
I found the following article on Brother's website:
Does this match your situation? If not, perhaps calling Brother's customer service will lead to a resolution. I found a customer service phone number on their website:
1-877-Brother (877-276-8437)
I hope this helps!

Sorry but the solution does not work, and Brother says it is definately on PB's end of things. So how does Paypal get them to fix it?
Thanks!
