How to Print Labels Half Page?

[netwizz760]

What is the current method to change my label preferences to print my labels on half a page of 8.5" x 11"??

I was rushing to beat the mail man and couldn't find it in the new interface that has changed too many times.

Is it something I need to click before I pay?  I went back in to an already paid label and for the life of me cannot find a way to tell it to print on half a page if I wanted to?  Is this something I can somehow turn on for printing in the future?

Thanks

I use one sheet of paper; I turn the paper over and print the packing slip on the back of the label (the part at the bottom where the item info is).  BUT I tape my labels on.  

There may be a way to change it in the settings when you get ready to print?

There is a link at the bottom of the label page that says something like PDF size. Click on that link and a dialog box come up that lets you change the label defaults. Lets you save the setting so you don't have to worry about it again.

You can tell the site to not include the instructions for placing the label on a package. This will give you less waste on the sheet of paper and usually you can get 2 labels on 1 sheet from 2 separate print jobs.. On the purchase label page on the far left side of the page. Scroll down and click change, the change button is usually to the right of the page size. When the pop up loads look for the option to include instructions and uncheck it.

To reduce costs on your end involving printing labels you will also want to look into refilling your printers ink cartridge If you search U tube using your printers model name with refill.  Basically you will have to buy bottles of ink and use a syringe to fill the cartage. There are also kits that the cartridge will snap into and after the needle is removed you can use syringe to draw the ink though the kit using suction.  For me a set of HP cartridge use to be around 50 to 60 dollars. For a while I was buying refilled cartridge for about 8 to 10 dollars. Now once a year I buy a bottle of ink for like 3 or 7 dollars.

When you are in the "Ship your order" page go all the way over the the lower right hand side of the page and click on the link that says "Print Format" change that to the option that says 8x11 and uncheck the box that says "add receipt and instructions" that way you can print two labels on the page by rotating the paper after the first one prints. Make sure you are on the 'Advanced shipping' option of the page - this option is in the upper right section of the page and you can toggle between advanced shipping and basic shipping.
