I can't print ebay Auspost labels correctly

I occasionally use the Print Postage Label service in ebay, to post parcels. I have self-adhesive A4 label sheets with 4 labels per page, which are about the size of the Auspost labels that ebay creates. I can't figure out how to print on 2 of the 4 labels. I can print the top-left, then by turning the page print the bottom-right, but not the other 2.

 

The postage label is created as a PDF file, which I save to my PC then re-open in Adobe Acrobat in order to access my printer's settings (Epson XP-200). However, I can't find any settings that allow me to move the position on the page of the label, so it will print on the top-right or bottom-left label.

 

A secondary problem is that even with the top-left label that does print, it prints slightly too far right, so the edge of the barcode is cut off (the QR code also loses its edge, making it unreadable, but the barcode is still readable). I think I need the option to print "A4 borderless" to fix this, but the "borderless" option is not available for A4 in my printer settings.

 

Anyone have any workarounds for printing all 4 labels (one at a time) on an A4 sheet of labels?

I have a Zebra GK888t, prints on A6 (25% of A4)

do you mean that's what you are printing on?

I'm having the same offset issue.

This thread has had no action for 2 years.  Am guessing those with problems have sorted it by now.

No I'm having problems printing the QR and barcodes out too. Sendle labels are fine. Not sure how they generate and embed in pdf.

Many years later.

 

Maybe use AP for AP labels. Only a mug would use eBay postage for AP items.

The same thing happens with AP labels printed from AP, which is how I've stumbled across this post lol.

I can only print two of the four labels on each sheet, too. I can't find anywhere on the PDF to edit it to move the next label over so it prints on one of the other two labels.
