How to Print Vinted Labels: The Complete UK Guide (2026)
If you sell on Vinted, you already know the problem. You click “Print” on an order, Vinted hands you a full A4 PDF, and your label ends up tiny in the corner of a huge page, or spills onto a blank second sheet. This guide covers how to print Vinted labels properly, whether you use a normal home printer or a 4×6 thermal label printer.
Why Vinted labels are awkward to print
Every Vinted shipping label arrives as an A4 PDF. The actual label only fills part of that page, and the rest is instructions or empty space. When you send that PDF to a printer, one of two things happens:
- On a home printer it scales to fill A4, so the barcode and address come out oversized or off centre.
- On a thermal printer set to 4×6, it either shrinks the label to nothing or pushes half of it onto a second label.
The fix is simple: crop the PDF down to just the label, sized to a true 4×6 (100 x 150 mm), before you print. That is exactly what our free Vinted label printer extension does automatically.
How to print a Vinted label in three steps
- Open the label. From your Vinted order, tap “Print” or “Download label”. The label opens as a PDF in a new browser tab.
- Crop it to 4×6. Click the Crop My Label icon. It reads the PDF, detects the courier, and crops to just the label on a clean 4×6 page. No manual cropping and no measuring.
- Print or download. Send it straight to your thermal printer, or download the cropped PDF and print it however you like.
That is the whole flow for printing Vinted labels. Previews are free, so you can check the crop looks right before you commit.
Fixing the “prints on two pages” problem
The most common complaint is a Vinted label that prints across two pages, leaving a blank second sheet. This happens because the A4 PDF is slightly larger than your label stock, so the printer bumps the overflow onto a new page.
Cropping to a true 4×6 solves it at the source. If you still see a second page, lower the print size a little (95% works well for most thermal printers) so a hair of white border keeps everything on one label.

What if you do not have a printer?
You do not always need to print at all. Some couriers give you a QR digital label that you can scan straight from your phone at a drop-off point. If that is you, read how to send a Vinted order without a printer.
Courier specific tips
The way you print a Vinted label depends on which courier the order uses:
- Royal Mail usually gives a QR code rather than a printed label. See how to print Royal Mail labels from Vinted.
- InPost and Evri give a digital label you can print to 4×6 or drop off with the QR code. See InPost and Evri digital labels explained.
The short version
To print Vinted labels cleanly, crop the A4 PDF to a real 4×6 before printing. Do that and the label comes out the right size, on one page, every time. Crop My Label does the cropping for you in a couple of clicks, and it is free for five labels a month with no account needed.
