How to Print Professional Shipping Labels from PayPal

1.
Before you go to Step 2 and start the process to print your professional labels, you must know what side of the paper your printer prints on. Pull out the top sheet of paper from your printer paper tray and write a big X on the sheet. Put it back in your printer and print one page of anything. This will tell you what side of the sheet your printer prints on. My HP Deskjet 3940 prints on the bottom surface of the paper. When you put label sheets in your printer remember which side they will be printed on and insert them accordingly.
2.
Do not put items in the packages and tape or staple them yet. Assemble everything that will go in your package for shipment, using at the very minimum a 6 in. x 9 in. padded envelope, and weigh it. This minimum size is very important as the adhesive label will fit in that space perfectly. Weigh your shipment and write the weight down where you won't forget it. I always write the weight in the middle of the package where the label will be placed. Do not package your goods until AFTER you have printed your label, because once packed in a padded bag for instance, you lose the nice flat surface to attach the label to, and attaching adhesive labels to bumpy surfaces is a pain, and ends up looking sloppy.
3.
Go to PayPal and click on the shipping label button beside the item you have sold. Follow the instructions carefully. Before you leave the U.S. Postal Service - Confirm and Purchase Your Shipping Label page, click on the link Edit Printer Settings. When the window opens, uncheck Receipt. What this does is allow the use of the two half page label sheets without wasting a label that would otherwise have the receipt info on it, every time you print. Then click Save. Back on the U.S. Postal Service - Confirm and Purchase Your Shipping Label page, click Pay and Continue.
4.
Insert a single sheet of labels into your printer knowing which side of the paper your printer prints on, and click Print Label. As you have unchecked Print Receipt in the Edit Printer Settings, only the top label on the sheet will be printed on. If you need to print another label, just turn the label sheet around and the next label will print on the remaining label on the sheet.
5.
Once your label has printed correctly, go back to PayPal and click OK in the Did your label print OK? dialog. Now is the time to put the label on a padded envelope, after which you can place your items in the envelope and seal it up. If you are shipping a box, pack the box first, tape it up, then put the label on.
6.
There you have it. If you were like me, I did not bother about professional looking labels until I started to sell quite a few things in a short period of time. To me, the professional labels say Pride in My Work. There is a little bit of extra effort and expense for you, but you get a professional result that will make a good impression on your customers.

How to Use Paypal as Merchant

1. Register for a Paypal business account, if you haven't already done so. This is different from a personal account or premier account, which are used to make purchases or sell products under your personal name. In contrast, a business account is used to make and receive transactions under a business or corporate name. You can have both a personal and a business account, but each one must have a different email address, bank account and credit card associated with it. You can also upgrade an existing premier account to a business account, if you choose.
2. Expect to wait a few days for the verification process to be completed if you are new to Paypal. When you create a new account, or upgrade an existing account with new email, bank and credit card information, Paypal makes a small payment to the account to verify its validity, which typically takes three to five business days.
3. Decide whether Paypal Website Payments Standard or Paypal Website Payments Pro is right for you. Website Payments Standard allows your customers to shop for and purchase multiple items using a shopping cart on your website, then make a single payment using the Paypal site. Website Payments Pro gives your customers the option to shop and pay on your website using the Paypal gateway running in the background, or to continue to the Paypal website to use their personal account to make the purchase. The Pro service involves a small transaction fee, which is based on a percentage of the total purchase. Whichever service you choose, you'll need to complete the appropriate application and wait for approval before proceeding.
4. Consider using the Payflow Payment Gateway if you currently accept credit card payments online. This service securely links your existing online store with your merchant account and your payment-processing network. There are two levels to this service: Payflow Link is a basic level that lets your customers make transactions through custom pages hosted on Paypal's servers, while Payflow Pro enables the entire transaction to take place on your website.
