Paypal printed postage labels query

I used paypal to print a postage label for the first time yesterday for a small packet to the USA.
It was pretty straight forward but it also printed a customs form, and certificate of posting.
It also wasted paper by printing in the middle of 3 A4 sheets (rather than at the edge, or all 3 on one sheet),
Is there any way I can get it to print only the postage label (not the other 2 as I can get these for free at the PO), or if not, could I get them to print all on one page?
The packet costs £4.50 odd to send, so I'd prefer to take it out of the paypal balance.

When it comes up with the Print option - on your pc - do you not get to choose how many pages to print? It'll say something like, "print all" and you should just be able to change it to "print page 1"
If that doesn't make sense, sorry.. the info is in my head, it's just difficult to get it out so ordinary people understand, lol0 -
i only ever print page 1, i fill in my own certificate of posting, and my own customs form if needed0

Thanks this has worked, and it printed the label in the corner of the page.I Hate Jobsworths!!!0

If you select label it will print the address on the top left of an A4 sheet. Still not very flexible, the RM post printing is better with options for envelopes and labels.0
