ebay bulk labels lacking some characters printing on my Mac

VinnyH · 05-21-2021, 01:14 PM

Just noticed some addresses missing characters on the labels we are printing in bulk from a Mac. For instance, a zip code might be 2 58 or the city might be leasa tville for Pleasantville.
Not sure if it's our Mac interpreting things wrong or ebay. I'm hoping the barcode scan contains all the full info as they go through the system until I figure it out.(we fix anything we can by writing it in)
Thanks for any tips or help,
Vinny

Sounds like it's a data receiving issue. Everything is supposed to be linked to barcode.

Maybe try shipping it through pirateship and see what happens

Thanks, I'm gonna try updating Adobe things first. It might be something with the pdf file not being interpreted right. Pirateship is interesting but my buddy is not big on change so that may be plan b or c.

For now I just switched the Adobe Reader app to print as an image and all is fine. It prints just as clear and fast. I also updated the Epson printer software so that may have helped.
Was just curious with my initial post to see if others were experiencing anything similar.
Best to All,
Vinny
