Has anyone had success printing out UPS labels using QR codes? I’ve tried using the instructions we have printed out, but it seems like it still wants me to scan a barcode still. Do we actually have the function yet to print labels through QR codes?

I feel so bad having to tell people to go to the UPS store still after even the announcement says we can print labels.

It's not an Amazon return. I got a pdf file from the site I'm returning to but I also just realized UPS emailed me a barcode, not a QR code. It says "Your returns label is available to print or scan" then under it has the tracking number. Then in small print under it says "Print your label at home, or bring this barcode to a UPS location we'll print it for you." Then under that is a yellow button link "Get your shipping label" then under that is another small link "Find a location to scan your barcode." Then under that is the barcode.

I googled and it says it's free for QR or barcode. Is this true for all the UPS stores? And I want to know why it's free for that but without it, it's supposedly not free? Is there a reason?

Thank you.

Thought I'd post this because I had no idea & maybe others don't as well! For a printer-less shipping option, Poshmark offers shipping label QR Codes. Bring your package to a USPS Post Office, and show your shipping QR Code to a retail associate. USPS will print the label generated from the QR Code and ship the labeled package.

To update your shipping label preference in the app:
Go to your Account Tab and select My Seller Tools.
Select Shipping Label Settings.
Select QR Code to set your preference.

On the web:
Select your profile picture at the top-right of the page.
Select Account Settings.
Select Shipping Label Settings.
Select QR Code to set your preference.

Before heading to USPS, please generate your QR code ahead of time, as it may take 2-3 minutes for the code to be scannable at a USPS store location.

I recently opened a pack and ship store and I’m able to take UPS drop offs if the customer has a printed label. When a customer comes in with a QR code, I have no way of scanning it. Is there a way to scan the QR code, so it generates a shipping labelor is there a way that I can scan the QR code? I am a UPS access point partner and have postal mate as my software.

So first time selling an item. I already paid for the shipping label but it tells me I can either print shipping label or scan QR code at usps store. If I go to usps store and already have QR code will I have to pay for it to be printed? Also if I print it out at home will normal paper be okay and just taping it to box or is that to silly? New to this so don’t be too harsh lmao just don’t wanna have to pay to have them print it out if it’s possible at home but may be easier at the store.

Also I once had to ship an item back to Amazon and had to scan QR code and wasn’t charged ( I think) to pay for shipping label so confused
