Do this in the free app: app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup. Design the label, then print on a Zebra or download PNG / PDF / ZPL.

Open 4x6 shipping template

An orders sheet can become 4x6 pack faces. Design one shipping label in the free label maker. Map {{to}}, {{street}}, {{order}}. Upload the sheet. Print on thermal stock.

Good to know: This is the pack face you control (who, where, order id). Buy postage from USPS, UPS, FedEx, Shopify, or Pirate Ship. We do not sell postage.

How to print pack labels from an order sheet

  1. Headers: order, to, street, city, state, zip.
  2. Open the free label maker. Set 4x6.
  3. Place {{to}} and the address. Add {{order}} as text or a barcode.
  4. Upload the Excel file. Print on the Zebra, or Download PDF at actual size.
