Computer/printer blowin’ my mind

heres hoping one of you computer-types can help me. I’ve been trying for a few hours to get a priority mail label to print. No, I’m not getting ready to bomb someone, I want to ship a couple lighters back to Xikar for servicing.
I go through all the steps (on my laptop) to create the label. I schedule a pickup. But when I try to print it nothing comes out. The computer says I printed a label but nothing’s there.
My printer is working just fine, printing other things before and after the label failure but each time I try to print it the ‘puter says it worked but it didn’t.
Anybody got any ideas as to what I’m doing wrong? I’m going ape-s h I t here......

If you go into USPS.com and into 'click & ship' there's a tab there called Shipping History. From there you can select the transaction and find a link to reprint a label.
What blows me away is that I can print the ‘shipping history’ page with no problem. And up on the left edge of the page there’s a section titled ‘Label Details’. About halfway down the list of things under that there’s a part titled ‘Label Actions’ and in that group are four selections you can click on - one of which is ‘Print/re-print’. When you put your cursor over that, the arrow changes to a hand as is normal but when you click on it there’s no blink or other indication that anything took place. But if you look, in a minute or two, down in the lower left corner it will show another ‘Label Re-printed’ message.
And dont THAT just frost your ass??
