Wow!!!... That was my last step before I place my writer on eBay for sale, fortunately! I will keep it forever. Thank you !
Whoa! $30! That's a steal. I use the stacked sheets that usually come 2 long and I just refold them so that they fit nicely behind my little printer. I have my regular printer on a plate rack and the Rollo sits right underneath.
I like your idea for the box. Its brilliant.
I just ordered mines today I’m excited I will. Receive it on February1st Can’t wait I hope this one work then they other ones

Hello, Do you have any tips on how to print single labels with it? ive got a bunch of 4x6 labels that are loose but don't know how to use them. Thanks
I'd love to see a setup of an actual ebay shipping label.
What scale do you recommend to go along with your setup?
Nice! I wonder printing for a coffee label?
For some reason My rollo after loading the shipping label my rollo keeps shooting out the labels.. Do you know why?
How do i know what size label rolls to get are they all the same ?
I LOVE my Rollo printer. I've been using it for awhile and it makes reselling life SO much easier. Poshmark labels print quite well...no reformatting. On Mercari I generally provide free shipping so I create my own labels through Paypal Business and it works great with that as well. However, I just sold my first item on EBAY where I am just getting used to the shipping and I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to get those labels reformatted to print on the Rollo. Any advice on that would be helpful. I hope you enjoy your new Rollo! :)

Many of the KZreads showed a screen that eBay had changed. I found an updated video and was able to change settings to 4x6. Thanks for asking!
