IMpb and DYMO labels
back to topAs a result of the new requirement that all packages must feature an IMpb, some labels layouts that have worked for packages previously will not work after the January 2012 price change. If shippers currently use one of the following DYMO labels to print postage for packages, they will need to begin using a new label. The DYMO 30383 3-part label, 30384 2-part label and 99019 1-part label will not fit the IMpb, but can still be used for letters and flats. Other DYMO labels, such as the 30387 3-part label and 4x6 label, will support the IMpb for packages.
International label layouts in DAZzle
back to topAs of the January 22, 2012 USPS price change, some current international label layouts within DAZzle will not be compliant with Postal Service regulations. It is recommended that customers migrate to a different international label layout that is supported.
International label layouts that will no longer meet regulations are:
- DYMO 4XL International mail shipping label
- International Label Half Page
- International mail shipping label
- Zebra International mail shipping label
Customers should choose one of the following two label layouts instead:
- International Label – Large
- International Label – Small 6x4

Once the update has been installed, the software will use the old prices before January 22nd, and will automatically use the new prices for all pieces dated January 22nd or later. All new features, services and package options will become available on January 22.
