FAQ
Can I use 4x6 labels for USPS?
Yes. 4x6 is the standard shipping label size for USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL, and every major shipping platform, including ShipStation, Shopify, Amazon, eBay, and Etsy, prints 4x6 labels natively.
Can I print 4x6 labels on a regular printer?
Not thermal labels. Direct thermal and thermal transfer labels need a thermal label printer such as a Zebra or Rollo. For full-color labels, our inkjet labels are made for color inkjet label printers like the Epson ColorWorks series. Learn more about printing thermal labels.
