LabelStudioAbout LabelPrint
LabelPrint is a Mac app that crops shipping labels out of the pages carriers put them on and prints them at full size on a thermal printer. It is made by Adrian Gorak, who also writes everything on this site.
One developer, two apps. There is no team behind this page and no content department — which is worth saying plainly, because it is the reason the guides read the way they do.
How the guides are written
There are 22 of them, and they exist because the same problems come up over and over in seller forums with answers that are confidently wrong.
Three rules hold across all of them:
- Every page is researched before it is written. The per-printer and per-carrier pages exist only where there is something genuinely different to say — that most Brother QL models physically cannot take a 4x6 label, that DHL eCommerce has no thermal option at all while DHL Express does, that UPS WorldShip does not run on macOS. Pages without a real difference to report would be padding.
- Numbers are calculated, not repeated. The figures on the sizes page — that 100 x 150 mm is the same shape as 4x6 exactly 1.6% smaller, that a 4x6 label is 24.8% of an A4 page, that fitting that page onto the label lands everything at 48% — were worked out rather than copied from another site.
- The free fix comes first. Every guide explains how to solve the problem by hand, or with the free tool here, before it mentions the app. If Preview and a print dialog are enough for what you ship, they are enough.
Where something has not been verified, the page says so rather than guessing.
The apps
LabelPrint 2.3 is on the Mac App Store. It is free for 5 labels a day, and $9.99 removes the limit and adds the watched folder that prints labels without the app being open. It needs macOS 14 or later.
LabelStudio is a separate app for designing labels rather than printing existing ones. It is not released yet; its page has the waitlist.
