My printer will not print shipping labels. How do I set this up. It has been working for some time, but now will not print anything from PayPal. What do I need to do to reset this system??

Here is how to change your shipping labels so it only uses half of the sheet. However, it did not work for me for some reason.

 

Log in to paypal and click the PROFILE tab at the far top right. Then under SELLING PREFERENCES in the 3rd column click on SHIPPING PREFERENCES. Next, under U.S. POSTAL SERVICE PREFERENCES click on the link that says EDIT PRINTER SETTINGS. Last, uncheck PRINT RECEIPT. Then SAVE.


Great Question & Terrific Answer!  What a Huge Help this was! Thanks so much, it worked Perfectly and saved me a lot of ink from now on!

This works if you're doing your labels one at a time, but does NOT work when you are doing the multi-order shipping.  

 

I do not have the print receipt box checked under my preferences, and tonight I used the multi-order shipping tool for the first time.  It printed out the instructions both times I tried it.  Wasted two labels, and those things aren't cheap.

What I really wish they would do is offer an option to print an  invoice or packing slip on the other half of the paper. They one could get both printed without any switching of paper or printing preferences, or tedious scrolling though one page after another. I daresay it would cut processing time in half, no small savings.

 

I guess some people like the little mini-receipt, but we sure don't need the instructions printed and reprinted 50 times a day.

Great point!

I agree completely!  I was so tired of printing those instructions over & over.  It took me years to realize how much ink I was waisting.

Thanks for th imput!

Try the Label Lady on eBay. She's got the best price I could find, and they work fine.
