love these Zebra vids - with your help I set up my 2824 for ebay about 3 years ago - - came back recently to learn reset label preference - invaluable info - thank you
I have been using my 2824 through Pirate Ship for a couple of weeks now and love it. Got lucky and scored an ethernet version.... These are about half price of the 2844 currently. Great video.
Hi someone just gifted me one of these to replace my 2844. But, it won't print for some reason. it works feed calibrated and all, but somehow it won't print. how did you get yours to print? Did I doe something wrong with the driver perhaps. I downloaded it 3 times by mistake?? When I check What's printing it isn't even under there.Shouldn't the USB light up? TIA

what software do i use to print a label i have followed the step and set up my zebra printer but do i have to use ebay or a post office or can i just print from my computer
Any sugestions on how best to print an extremely large list of uniquie names using 1x2 labels for this printer. I've been having a hard time finding anything.
You would need a document template with the right dimensions and then the correct settings on the printer. I dont have a tutorial on that exact application but I could see it working with some adjustments.
@@Elsiemerolling I just bought some 2x7 lables and have had pretty good results on printing out a unique list that I copy and pasted into a google spread sheet. After spacing out the cells and screwing around with some margins I've gotten it to work pretty well with what I need it for. The only problem is I have to cut out each cell with a paper cutter. The problem I was having with the 1x2 lables is the google print settings screen doen't recognize that small of a piece of paper. hope this helps
I've been using a laser printer for Ebay and Etsy shipping labels. Is it cheap to print lebels with this device? Is the roll or staked sheets economical, relative to 5.5" x 8.5" two labels per 8.5" x 11" sheet?
My printer isnt printing well the writing is very faint. i havnt used one before and was looking to print my barcodes. how do i type what i want on the the label names and addresses etc?
Hi! You can send commands to your printer from your software, i've got the command from Zebra and it should all be pasted in the following order, all in the same "text" or what you will call it. Not 1 and send, 1 and send and so on. This is the command: ^XA ^MFn,N ^JUS ^XZ , if you have a windows computer and the software, you can go to "configure printer settings", when you are on the "advanced settings", select "media feed options" and set that to "no feed", that worked for me. Hope that helps :)
You need a UPS business account, they should show up under "stickers" I think. Named something like 4x6 roll or fan fold. You can order by calling them too.
We use this printer for our oil change stickers and want to program our new address into the system. Can you explain how to change the information that prints on the label? We have been told the printer needs to be sent back to the supplier for programming... is this true?
Hey I meant to ask you can you tell me something about this printer? Zebra LP 2543 Parellel Serial Thermal Label Printer, can I use this for Amazon & Ebay?
I have a blue flash drive thingy that also is supposed to go to the back, but the thing is it doesn’t even go in! Do you know what it’s called or how to fix this?
Does anyone know why my LP2824 seems to skip calibration and go right to printing a diagnostic? I hold the feed button and turn it on, then I let go as soon as it starts blinking red. It blinks green a few times then goes right to printing the diagnostic. I've wasted over a hundred labels on this stupid thing.

Great video. Got everything done. But the test print didn’t print anything on my label😢 you didn’t cover that possibility
Does this printer work with Windows 12?
Thanks for this video! I did the download and I see it on my list of printers but it won't print. I only have windows 7. Is this the problem?
thanks
Having an issue where a 2824 is printing only 2 labels and then the red light flashes. Any advice?

@@shittychannel4860 Thank you so much! I managed to do it in the software.
No more wasted labels :) thanks!
Trust Safety NL glad I could help! Have a wonderful day and happy shipping :)
Hello, I was wondering if you could make a video on how to order the free thermal shipping roll from usps, I went to supplies but I didn't see it.
You need a UPS business account, they should show up under "stickers" I think. Named something like 4x6 roll or fan fold. You can order by calling them too.
We use this printer for our oil change stickers and want to program our new address into the system. Can you explain how to change the information that prints on the label? We have been told the printer needs to be sent back to the supplier for programming... is this true?
It would depend on how the system is setup, if anything address field is editable on your software. It very well could be true.
I have a Mac & the driver won't work on my computer. Can you recommend a driver that is suitable for Mac?
Hi, What printer are you trying to install?
#notificationsquad good stuff man
The half text of the barcode is not printed.
How do I solve this problem? Please
Hey I meant to ask you can you tell me something about this printer? Zebra LP 2543 Parellel Serial Thermal Label Printer, can I use this for Amazon & Ebay?
I am not familiar with that model but you will want a USB port.
@@thecollegepicker thanks
I HAVE GOT IT FOR HOW CAN INSTALL DRIVER BUT HOW CAN I INSTALL SOFWARE FOR MAKING BARCODE AND PRICE LABELING?
I have a blue flash drive thingy that also is supposed to go to the back, but the thing is it doesn’t even go in! Do you know what it’s called or how to fix this?
I haven't ever seen that setup before, it might be a driver that they included to help install it?
#knowledge&healthtv
Very Good Explanation
You are welcome
How do i connect to a scale please (meat scale) thanks
I need smaller labels for example just so I can print the address. Can I still buy this printer?
Yes it will print smaller labels also.
can you use this printing format for ups shipping labels or is it only for USPS?
Usps domestic only 😔
tank u so mtch))))))))))
Do you have a video on settings up the zebra lp2844 for windows 10?
Yes, it's the same process minus the settings unless you are using the 2x7 labels
Which printer would you say is better?
The ZP450 or the LP2844?
@@RICK2238 the zp450 is a newer more updated printer, which is why it is usually more expensive in most listings you will find.
thecollegepicker Thank you!!! Want expecting such a quick response 😬
Your awesome!👍🏻
@@RICK2238 you are welcome, caught me a good time. on yt uploading a video now haha. =)
i have a dymo 450, my labels are printing out super small - i don’t know how to get my shipping labels in that format !!
What's up man, you'll have to change settings in whatever place is making your labels. eBay, PayPal, pirate ship etc
Can we use these to print shipping labels?
Yeah 2x7 USPS domestic format

you must have a bachelors in printerology
Did you get your L and R working on Mario Odyssey?
Lmao I was wondering if anyone would see that. 🤣
Can the lp2824 print price tag labels or is it just for mailing labels
It could print those too. Anything that would fit.
@@thecollegepicker Thank you
Anytime 🙂
Is there a different driver for Windows 7 on the link that you posted?
I believe it would use the same driver
i got this printer in the abandoned shop
hello I hope you can help me, how can I print from my chromebook to a Zebra zp 450 on eBay thanks
Hi I have a video on my channel for Chromebook. It's not the zp 450 but the same process should work. Have fun!
@@thecollegepicker thanks
Mine just keeps fucking printing a million blank. Won't print my label.
