Hey guys, I am considering using PayPal to print labels and pay for shipping instead of running over to the post office every day. For one it's more convenient and secondly, it's cheaper since delivery confirmation is only $0.19 compared to $0.80 at the PO. Anyway, I thought making this jump would be easy... you know, just print the label like you would print anything else and just tape it to the front of the envelope. Well, after seeing and reading all of the topics that have been posted it seems like I may be in way over my head. The two main questions I have (for now) are... 1) Do I have to print the shipping label on adhesive paper (i.e., labels like Avery, etc.)... OR... can I just print it on a piece of paper and just tape it on to the envelope? 2) This is probably my main question... I have an HP inkjet printer... when printing my shipping label, do I have to use the "normal" or "best quality" printing options when printing or can I use "draft" or "grayscale"? I'm asking because ink is expensive and if I can print using less ink (draft or grayscale) then all the better. Thanks in advance for your help. I'm just a little scared and concerned about using PayPal's shipping center for the first time and it doesn't make me feel any better when I see all the problems people are having. Thanks again. I really appreciate any help or advice you can give to a newbie!
