Introducing thermal printing for FBA shipping labels
On December 18, 2019, we launched support for printing shipping labels on thermal paper for Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) sellers in North America. You now have the option to print FBA box and pallet labels using the thermal printing format (4 x 6 inches) when you create shipments to Amazon fulfillment centers.
Why is FBA launching this?
Previously, FBA supported only the US letter format (8.5 x 11 inches) for printing box and pallet labels. The format requires some additional handling, since multiple labels are printed on the same page and you have cut out the individual labels.
Thermal printing allows you to print labels individually. This simplifies handling, improves label readability, and makes it easier to match labels to the correct boxes and pallets.
To learn more, see Shipping Label Requirements.

Is there a timetable for when the ability to use thermal printing paper will be added to MWS?

Nice Job - it works well!
Now if only Amazon would roll out printing product FNSKU barcode labels on Thermal labels (30-up size) instead of on 8.5x11 paper.
That would be great!

in manage FBA inventory --> print product label.
there is a wide selection of label sizes here. box labels can be printed by using adobe. the shipping label requires copy paste from adobe to MO picture manager. print at full size. you just need to choose your thermal printer and label size under advanced settings.

It would be really nice if you would make the same option available for the bar code labels to a thermal direct printer. If you could put in your label size, not just for sheets of labels but for thermal printer rolls.

For some reason the quality of the Thermal prints are low on the UPS shipping labels, checked many settings and quality options but still could get much improvement.
Has anyone experienced similar issues.
Using Zebra LP 2844 - could this antiquated device be the issue?
