Meesho and Flipkart Label Size: 4x6 vs A4 and Printer Settings
Meesho and Flipkart both give you labels as A4 PDF pages. Most sellers crop the label and print it on 4 x 6 inch (100 x 150 mm) thermal labels; you can also print the cropped label on 4x4 labels or on A4 plain paper. Whatever size you choose, print at 100% scale so the barcode scans.
Meesho and Flipkart label size options
Our label crop tool fits the cropped label to whichever size you pick, and turns wide labels 90° when that prints them larger.
| Paper | Printer | Good for | Invoice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 x 6 inch (100 x 150 mm) | Thermal label printer | Most sellers — one label per order, no ink | Removed |
| 4 x 4 inch | Thermal label printer | Printers loaded with square labels | Removed |
| A4 | Laser or inkjet printer | Starting out, or keeping label + invoice | Removed or kept |
| Original size | Any | Keeping the cropped label at its own size | Removed |
Choosing a label printer for Meesho and Flipkart
- A 4-inch thermal label printer prints 4x6 labels without ink or toner; it needs direct thermal labels.
- Check the printer supports 4 x 6 inch (100 x 150 mm) labels and has a driver for your computer.
- If you ship a few orders a day, an ordinary A4 printer is fine: print the cropped labels on A4 and cut them, or use A4 label sheets.
Printer settings for sharp, scannable labels
- Set the paper size in your printer settings to 4 x 6 inch (100 x 150 mm).
- Print at 100% or "Actual size". Turn off "Fit to page" — scaling makes barcodes harder to scan.
- Keep margins at zero or "None" if your print dialog offers it.
- Print one test label and scan the barcode with your phone before printing the whole batch.
