Paypal Postage printing

I have been printing postage labels on A4 pages (4 peel off labels on one page), and it always prints on the top left side of the page (see pic below).

Is there any way I can adjust the printing, so it prints on the right side of the page, as I'm ending up wasting loads of labels?

I have looked to see if I can change the printing position, but cannot see anything when the printing options come up.

    I don't think you can change it :( We use plain paper and just stick it on with tape, but that takes longer and looks worse than labels. Useful service, but it really needs tinkering with- far too buggy.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    Yeah I agree. The royal mail website is much better, you can choose where you want it on the page.

    What i do is just turn the paper around & it'll print on the other top left square.
    Then i unstick the other two remaining stickers, and stick them at the top left sections - so they match up where the other stickers were previously.

    Hope that wasn't too confusing? :D

    I never thought of that, I'll try it thanks.
    If not I think I might try the RM site.

    I agree with Hayley that the Royal Mail site is much better for printing postage. The great thing about PayPal though is that you can hide the postage amount. If only RM would start that too....
