The dimensions are too small for expedited USA and too large and too heavy for light packet so I don't understand why LP would work for you...perhaps you mean small packet?

 

 If you try to use another service and then try to use TP  there is a glitch and the TP option won't work. You have to try the tracked packet option first. I'm not sure though if that was your problem today.

You tried tracked packet first before any other method and it didn't work?

I don't understand why you and goldnideas are not able to print international shipping labels at all. Have you tried different international services or does one in particular not work?  Have you contacted Paypal to ask them about it? I have the odd problem when printing a label but it doesn't happen often.

 

nan...when did you try last and what error message do you get?

 

Which browsers are you both using?

It worked fine for me with Expedited and XpressPost parcels a few hours ago.

Of course I contacted PP and their IT department, it is not my browsers or computers. They have problem with Canada Post (for some regions) their engineers working on it, meanwhile I still have the very same problem. Who knows how long it will take for them to figure it out.
