It is impossible to sign in to Packlink to print a label if mobile 2FA is enabled, because clicking on the packlink tab redirects to a page demanding a Paypal key with a 6-digit code. I have never had such a key and cannot retrieve such a code, and the page seems old and unmaintained judging from the quality of the layout. I am very sure this is a bug with mobile 2FA affecting the new Packlink integration because disabling 2FA allows me to print a label as normal.
