Three ways to print a UPS shipping label

Most people assume a UPS label has to be printed at a counter. It doesn’t. Here is what each option actually costs you in money, time and equipment.

  At a shipping counter At home, plain paper At home, thermal printer
Cost to print A per-page printing fee, on top of postage Ink and paper you already have No ink — thermal printing uses heat
What you need The label on your phone, plus a trip Any inkjet or laser printer, tape or a pouch A 4×6 thermal printer and label stock
Time per label Travel time, plus queueing About a minute, plus cutting and taping A few seconds — peel and stick
Works for batches One at a time Yes, but each sheet needs cutting A whole day of orders in one run
Rate you pay The rate quoted at the counter Whatever rate your platform applied On Rollo Ship, up to 81% off UPS® Ground*

All three produce the same valid UPS label. Rollo Ship generates the label with no fee in every case — the printer only changes how it gets onto the box. Check what your package would cost.

*Discounts off UPS daily rates. Rates are limited to shipping from the U.S. only. Rates and any applicable discounts are subject to change at any time without notice. The 81% off UPS® Ground figure applies to dimensional rates.

The things that come up after the label is made

Creating a UPS return label

Generate a prepaid return label from the original shipment in a couple of clicks, then email it to the customer or drop it in the box.

A return label is only billed if it is actually used, so sending one with every order costs nothing until someone returns something.

Reprinting a label

Every label you create stays in your shipment history. If a print job jams or a label tears, reprint it from the same record at no extra charge — you are not buying a second label.

Do UPS labels expire?

A UPS label does not carry a hard expiry date, but the rate quoted on it is tied to the day it was created. Rates change, and a label left sitting can be re-rated on delivery.

Void unused labels before your billing period closes so you are not charged for postage you never used.

Pickups and drop-off

Schedule a UPS On-Call Pickup® from your home or office directly in Rollo Ship, or drop the parcel at any UPS Access Point® location, UPS® Drop Box or The UPS Store®.

More than 16,000 UPS Access Point® locations operate across the US.

  • Group a whole day of orders into one print job
  • Apply saved packaging and UPS service rules across the batch
  • Send every label to a thermal printer at once
  • Per-label cost falls to as low as 1¢ at the VIP tier

Print at home with the Rollo Wireless Thermal Printer (X1040)

You don’t need a printer to use Rollo Ship — plain paper and tape work fine. But if you are printing every day, a thermal printer takes ink out of the equation entirely and produces a 4×6 label in a couple of seconds.

Every Rollo Wireless Thermal Printer includes

  • A free pack of 500 4×6 shipping labels — start printing immediately
  • AirPrint certification, with over-the-air updates
  • Mac, Windows, iPhone, iPad, Android, Chromebook and Linux support
  • A one-year replacement warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee

Each Rollo product stands on its own, and they combine for compounding rewards: printing labels on Rollo Ship earns points toward lower per-label pricing and free hardware at higher tiers.

UPS shipping label questions

Can UPS print my shipping label for me?
Yes, a UPS location can print a label from an email or a QR code, and most charge a per-page printing fee for it. You can skip both the fee and the trip by creating the label in Rollo Ship and printing it at home. A UPS label is a standard 4x6 image, so any inkjet, laser or thermal printer produces a valid one.
How do I create a UPS shipping label?
Open a free Rollo Ship account, enter the destination address and the package weight, then compare rates across USPS, UPS, FedEx, Canada Post and Purolator side by side. Choose the UPS service that matches your delivery promise and the label is generated instantly, ready to print or save.
Do I need a UPS account to print a UPS label?
No. Rollo Ship gives you access to discounted UPS rates without opening a separate UPS account, signing up for a subscription or meeting a monthly shipping minimum. You create the account, enter the package, and the UPS rate is applied at label creation.
How much does it cost to print a shipping label?
Creating the label on Rollo Ship is free for your first 200 labels, then 5 cents each, falling to as low as 1 cent at the VIP tier of Rollo Rewards. Printing it costs whatever paper and ink you already use, or nothing beyond label stock if you print on a thermal printer.
Can I print UPS labels on a regular home printer?
Yes. Print the 4x6 label on plain paper, then either slide it into a label pouch or tape it flat to the box with clear tape, making sure the tape does not cover the barcode. A thermal printer produces an adhesive label directly and needs no ink, which is why high-volume shippers move to one.
Can I print multiple UPS labels at once?
Yes. Rollo Ship imports orders from connected stores, groups similar packages together, applies your saved shipping rules, and sends the whole batch to your printer in a single print job. This is the fastest route once you are shipping more than a handful of orders a day.
How do I reprint a UPS shipping label?
Every label you create stays in your Rollo Ship shipment history. Open the shipment and reprint the label at no additional charge. You are reprinting the same label, not buying a second one, so nothing extra is billed.
Do UPS shipping labels expire?
A UPS label does not carry a hard expiry date, but the rate on it is tied to the day it was created, and a label held for a long stretch can be re-rated when it enters the network. Void any label you are not going to use before your billing period closes so you are not charged for unused postage.
How do I create a UPS return label?
Generate a prepaid return label from the original shipment in Rollo Ship, then email it to your customer or include it in the box. Return labels are only billed when they are actually scanned into the network, so including one with every order costs nothing unless it gets used.
Can I schedule a UPS pickup instead of dropping off?
Yes. Schedule a UPS On-Call Pickup from your home or office directly inside Rollo Ship once the label is created. If you prefer to drop off, there are more than 16,000 UPS Access Point locations across the US, plus UPS Drop Box locations and The UPS Store.
