Step-by-Step: How to Print a FedEx or USPS Label at Home

1. Get Your Shipping Label

FedEx: Go to FedEx.com, sign in, and click “Create Shipment.” You’ll enter the recipient’s address, package details, and select shipping options.
For a more in-depth tutorial—including tips on account setup and printer selection—refer to our Guide to Printing FedEx Shipping Labels.
USPS: Visit Click-N-Ship and create your label directly online. You don’t need a business account—just a USPS login.

2. Choose the Right Format

Most platforms let you download the label as a PDF. Select the 4x6 inch format whenever available—this is standard for thermal printers like Phomemo.

3. Connect to Your Phomemo Printer

Use Bluetooth (models like PM-241BT) or USB (models like PM-246).
Download the Labelife or Phomemo app depending on your device and printer model.
Make sure your printer is powered on and the label paper is loaded correctly.

4. Adjust Printer Settings

Whether using a desktop or mobile app, double-check:

Paper size: 100mm x 150mm (4"x6")
Print mode: Thermal
Scale: 100% (disable “Fit to Page” or similar options)

5. Print & Stick

Hit print and you're done. The label will come out clean, sharp, and ready to go.
We recommend using Phomemo adhesive labels to ensure they stick securely to your package, even in transit.
