Print shipping labels from any platform
HotLabel works like any printer. The one setting that matters is telling your platform to produce 4 × 6 in labels instead of A4 or Letter pages.
HotLabel installs as a normal printer, so anything that can print can print to it. If a platform isn't listed below it doesn't mean it won't work: as long as you can get a 4 × 6 in (100 × 150 mm) label out of it, it will print perfectly.
The one rule
Most platforms default to labels laid out on A4 or 8.5 × 11 in paper for ordinary printers. Change that setting to 4 × 6 in thermal label once and every label afterwards comes out correctly. Until you do, labels print small or sideways (why).
