# What is LabelChop?

LabelChop is a desktop app for ecommerce sellers who print shipping labels on thermal printers.

It is built for the common Australian seller problem: MyPost Business often downloads shipping labels as A4 PDFs, but thermal printers expect a 4x6 inch / 100x150mm label.

Instead of opening the PDF, cropping it manually, changing print settings, and trying again, LabelChop can watch your Downloads folder and print the label automatically.

## What LabelChop does

-   Watches a folder on your computer, usually Downloads.
    
-   Detects shipping label PDFs.
    
-   Finds the label on the A4 page.
    
-   Crops it to 4x6 / 100x150mm.
    
-   Sends it to your chosen thermal printer.
    

## Who it is for

LabelChop is best for Australian sellers using:

-   Australia Post MyPost Business
    
-   eBay orders routed through MyPost Business
    
-   Shopify orders routed through MyPost Business
    
-   Etsy or Amazon AU sellers using MyPost Business labels
    
-   Dymo, Zebra, Brother, MUNBYN, Rollo, or other 4x6 thermal label printers
    

## Main benefit

Once LabelChop is set up, you download the label and LabelChop handles the print workflow in the background.
