Anybody have trouble printing shipping labels through Ebay/Paypal this afternoon? I have one shipment that will not print and when you try to reprint it the box pops up but nothing will load and the "please wait" line just locks there.I tried voiding that label and reprinting a totally new one and I am getting the same result. I've had it not print initially and then have to reprint the label but it just won't work today for some reason. I even tried disabling the popup blocker and it doesnt change it. I'm betting its a Paypal snafu....Gary

happened to me last night when I tried to add insurance, retried several times, worked this morning. Shut your computer down and try again maybe?

I'm just gonna give it til morning and try it. I didn't try the second time but once as the first time it told me I had tried to reprint too many times. Evidently it gets the request to print but never sends the data back. I voided the first label and that went through. Stupid computers....

The Paypal system has to hook into the Postal Service computers to print the labels with postage. When the postal service network has problems, the results are not received in a timely manner and the label doesn't print. Paypal may not have much control in that situation. Over the years, I have had less trouble printing postage through Paypal than I have doing it directly with usps.com

Just make sure you print it within 24 hours of when you paid for it, or it expires, and remember there is a limit to how many times you can reprint the label, then you have to cancel and re-purchase it.

Tried it this morning and it worked like usual. Still had to void the second label that would never print yesterday as it still wouldn't print today but when I started over it worked. Guess they were just having a bad day yesterday. Thanks for the input.
