Hi All,

Can anyone point me in the right direction of a decent label printer that is the most cost efficient?

Looking for shipping label size so bigger than standard

Thanks

So you want larger labels?

More ink used?

Many here love the Dymo little small one, less ink, quick, cost effective etc.

How about what size are you looking for? the question is too general. Usually label printers are compact. Any particular reason why u want a bigger label?

I dont have a clue about what I am looking for to be honest but I didn't want the postman having to get his/her glasses out to read the label.

Anything that is affordable and runs will be fine.

Why would they have to read the label?

I use the Zebra 2844, I swear by it, it works and does the job perfectly. Lots of other people use this model. Find a good used one on ebay.

lol good point!

most people use 4x6 labels on their packages, while it is very kind to think of the postman/woman, i think these labels should be just fine. It is being printed not handwritten, I think they will survive. Nothing is better than the printer yotano suggested.

agreed, zebra is the way to go, ends up costing around 1 cent per label if you buy in bulk, plus no ink costs

I have a question. They all look nice I just viewed them all on youtube videos.

Thing is I am in Europe I process all the orders and my buddy does the shipping/packing part for me in the US. Would he need to have this there with him or would I? And would he require to have access to the site? Do these upload the tracking on ebay or do you need to do that also?

And for many accounts also, easy or how's that work?

What about for customs sheet? I like the one on ebay, just click n print it and voila you are done and has it all uploads for you and simple task.

I just hate having to take a screen shot and turn it side ways to put it on the sheets to print it.
