Label printer settings

I wish I would have checked with the community before I spent a frustrating month on trying to figure out why my 4x6 labels wouldn't print right! Turns out the solution is right on the page when your printing out a label. mine was set for 8x11 instead of 4x6. It's to the right, under the address, it says format. I had called Ebay to get help but they referred me to the Rollo printer manufacturer. But it was Ebay that caused the problem when I sold 2 items to different people.  I hope this helps someone else.

Sorry to hear eBay CS did not help. This is a pattern - lots of reports here where front line CS never suggests to check label size on eBay before telling the seller the problem is on their end.

 

If others find this because they have the same question as you ....

 

 

On the label purchase page first make sure your label options are expanded (text is slightly different from below screenshot - it now says 'switch to advanced shipping'):

When your shipping options are expanded:

If you're using bulk labels:
