Label Printers and Supplies for Etsy Sellers
Etsy's shipping-label help page, as summarized in search results we have not re-read, says to choose 4 in x 6 in when you print a label, which is the 4x6 thermal size. The printer choice then runs through the label source, such as Pirate Ship, and the printer's own page.
What decides it for you
- A printer that prints 4 in x 6 in labels
- The paper size set to 4x6 in the print dialog
- Label stock your printer accepts, since some printers are tied to their maker’s rolls
