I have been trying to get into the USPS site to print off labels but when I go to the print and ship the website just hangs there.  I have tried multiple browsers and its the same result.  Anybody else having issues?

    Haven't tried lately. You using a PC or a smartphone?

    I've found that when I print labels using my iPhone it prints everything but the bar code on the label. USPS doesn't like that. 

    When end I print using my laptop or PC, it all prints normally. 

    Im speaking of my previous usage - like I said, I have t tried lately....

    yep the usps site has been timing out for me a lot lately.....dunno if they pushed an update or what, but it's been spotty recently.

    i've been printing flat rate labels through paypal instead:

    * I have a new address as of 3/24/18 *

    This works, and is a way to buy first class postage online, but they may charge more for it.

    I've noticed with USPS in the past that I have to allow a pop-up to view and print my label.  Usually something in the address bar or top of the browser is sitting there waiting for me to approve the action before I can print the label.  I haven't printed a label in a couple weeks, though.

    Good luck!
