Possible to print ebay shipping labels

jack_121

Hi. Is it possible to print ebay shipping labels onto a brother ql800 thermal printer.

I have searched but can only find how to print ebay labels if purchasing the shipping / courier from the ebay website itself. There seems little information if wanting to use your own courier and just print the label.

Many thanks.

It should be possible, yes. Just go to the appropriate web site, purchase the postage and print off the supplied label.

Okay, but how do you print the label from the ebay website.

I have the thermal printer and want to print out the receipents name and address onto a blank label, then stick the blank label onto the front of the parcel.

Copy and paste?

Create a new document the same size as the thermal label, in something like Word.  Copy and paste name/address from eBay.  Print.

Thanks. I can do it that way, copy the name and address from the ebay website, then paste it into the brother software and it prints it fine.

But my brother keeps insisting that it is possible to tell the ebay website to print and it should come through to the brother printer, says something about a zebra printer..

I have been searching all day and all i can find is tutorials to do this but you have to purchase the shipping though ebay and then ebay prints out the entire label.

Zebra is another brand of thermal printer.
