How to Print 4x6 Shipping Labels at Home

Step-by-step guide to printing professional 4x6 shipping labels from your home printer. Works with thermal printers like Rollo and DYMO, plus standard inkjet and laser printers.

What You Need

Printing shipping labels at home is simpler than you think. Whether you run an Etsy shop, a Shopify store, or just need to mail packages, a 4x6 label gives your shipments a clean, professional look.

Equipment options:

  • A thermal label printer (Rollo, DYMO 4XL, or MUNBYN) for the best results
  • Any standard inkjet or laser printer with 4x6 label sheets
  • Step-by-Step Guide

    1. Design Your Label

    Head to My Shipping Label and fill in your return address, customer address, and a thank-you message. Upload your logo for brand recognition.

    2. Set Your Printer to 4x6

    When the print dialog opens, make sure the paper size is set to 4 x 6 inches. Set scale to 100% and margins to none.

    3. Load Your Paper

  • Thermal printer: Load a blank 4x6 label into the tray
  • Standard printer: Use adhesive 4x6 label sheets (available on Amazon)
  • 4. Print and Apply

    Hit print, then peel and stick. The label is designed to be turned so the long edge is on top after printing, giving you a clean landscape layout.

    Pro Tips

  • Always do a test print on regular paper first to check alignment
  • Use the highest quality setting on inkjet printers for crisp text
  • Save your defaults in My Shipping Label so you only enter your return address once
  • Thermal printers save money long-term since they don't use ink
