How Do I Download a Label?
I don't have to download anything. I fill in my details on the PC and open the printer. Then I cut them out into a rectangular shape and attach them to the package. If I don't have the printer, I fill them out by hand in 10 seconds. Done. No problem.

You can ship a label without printing it EVEN with the eBay shipping by Packlink service with Poste Italiane or BRT, but there are a few things to keep in mind.
With BRT, if you show up at a drop-off point WITHOUT A LABEL, they might make a fuss and/or not be able to print the label because they don’t know this procedure and/or they don’t have the proper printer with the proper adhesive slip.
With Poste Italiane, on the other hand, you just need to go to a post office and show the QR code on your smartphone.
Packlink has the fantastic habit of squashing the labels, so their QR code, instead of being square, ends up compressed on both sides, which could cause problems with the postal scanner.
So you need to go to spedizioni.ebay.it and, next to the shipment, download the QR code in the correct format.
The advice I can give is to save a screenshot of the QR code on your phone rather than taking a photo with your smartphone, and to set the brightness to maximum.
Another detail to pay particular attention to concerns the shipping address.
Unfortunately, operators have the bad habit of sticking the label on with tape on all 4 sides, leaving the label exposed (when the office does not have the proper label pouches/pockets).
In these situations, all it takes is for the package to rub against another surface for it to tear off.
If the label tears off and gets lost and there is no other information on the package, the package ends up being scrapped.
So it is ALWAYS good practice to also write the sender/recipient address with a marker and, if possible, also the shipping code.
In this situation, if the label tears or wears away from rubbing, the package can still be recovered.
Kind regards.
