Print Size Preferences

How Downloads Are Organized
When you click Download Combined, Quick Ship automatically routes each order's packing slip and shipping label into the correct output file based on your preferences.
When you get a .zip file
If your preferences produce more than one output file (e.g. some orders go to thermal and others to standard paper), Quick Ship automatically bundles them into a single fulfillment-and-labels.zip archive. Extract it and send each PDF to the appropriate printer.
Things to Watch Out For
Mixed sizes always produce a .zip
If any order in a batch has a different packing slip size or label size than the others, the download will be a .zip instead of a single PDF. This is by design — it lets you send each file to the right printer — but it means an extra extraction step. If you want a single PDF every time, set all sizes to 4×6 Thermal.
9×4 labels require correct printer scaling
When printing 9×4 envelope labels on a desktop printer, make sure your print dialog is set to 100% / Actual Size. Scaling to fit the page will distort barcodes and make them unreadable by USPS scanners.
Packing slip size and label size are independent
You can use a 4×6 packing slip with a 9×4 label, or an 8×11 packing slip with a 4×6 label. When they differ for the same order, the packing slip goes into one file and the label goes into another — they are not combined onto the same page.
Parcel labels and slips are always 4×6
Parcel shipping labels are locked to 4×6 to meet USPS carrier requirements. You can still choose 8×11 for Parcel packing slips if you prefer, which will route the slip to your standard-8x11.pdf.
Order sorting is preserved across all files
All output files (thermal, standard, envelope) maintain the same order sequence as your picking session. If you sorted by order number, each PDF will also be sorted that way, so it's easy to match slips to labels even when they're in separate files.
