If you sell on Hepsiburada — Turkey's largest e-commerce marketplace — you already know that shipping labels are one of the most time-consuming parts of your daily workflow. Every order needs a properly formatted shipping label with the correct barcode, buyer address, cargo tracking number, and Hepsiburada's specific formatting requirements. Printing them one by one from the seller panel is painfully slow. And during campaign days like Efsane Cuma or 11.11 sales, when orders surge tenfold, the manual process breaks down completely.
This guide covers everything Hepsiburada sellers need to know about printing shipping labels in 2026: the manual process through the seller panel, how to set up a thermal printer for Hepsiburada labels, the challenges of bulk printing, and — most importantly — how LabelInn can automate the entire workflow by connecting directly to Hepsiburada's API. Whether you're shipping 10 orders a day or 1,000, you'll find actionable steps to speed up your label printing and reduce errors.
Understanding Hepsiburada Shipping Label Requirements
Before diving into how to print, it's essential to understand what Hepsiburada requires on each shipping label. Hepsiburada is strict about label formatting because their logistics partners — HepsiJet, Yurtiçi Kargo, Aras Kargo, MNG Kargo, Sürat Kargo, and others — rely on barcode scanning at distribution hubs to sort and route packages efficiently. A poorly printed or incorrectly formatted label means your package gets delayed, lost, or returned.
Every Hepsiburada shipping label must include the following elements:
- Cargo barcode (tracking number): A Code 128 or Code 39 barcode that the cargo company scans at every sorting facility. This is the most critical element — if it's unreadable, the package cannot be tracked or delivered.
- Buyer name and address: The recipient's full name, street address, district (ilçe), city (il), and postal code. Hepsiburada masks some buyer data for privacy, so you'll see partial phone numbers and sometimes abbreviated addresses.
- Seller information: Your store name and return address. This appears on the label so the cargo company knows where to return undeliverable packages.
- Order number: Hepsiburada's internal order reference number, used for reconciliation and customer service inquiries.
- Cargo company name and logo: The designated cargo carrier for that specific order. Hepsiburada assigns a cargo company based on the buyer's location, seller's integration, and the HepsiLojistik optimization algorithm.
- Package weight and dimensions (optional): Some cargo integrations include deci information on the label for volumetric weight pricing.
The standard label size for Hepsiburada shipping labels is 100×150mm (4×6 inches) — the same standard used by Amazon, Trendyol, and most global marketplaces. This size fits perfectly on thermal printers like the Zebra ZD220, Xprinter XP-460B, or any 4-inch thermal label printer. You can also print on A4 paper and cut, but that's wasteful and slow.

The default method for printing Hepsiburada shipping labels is through the Hepsiburada Merchant Panel (merchant.hepsiburada.com). Here's the exact process, step by step:
Step 1: Log Into the Hepsiburada Seller Panel
Navigate to merchant.hepsiburada.com and log in with your seller credentials. If you have multiple stores, select the correct store from the account switcher.
Step 2: Go to Orders → Awaiting Shipment
In the left sidebar, click Siparişler (Orders) and then select Kargoya Verilecekler (Awaiting Shipment). This view shows all confirmed paid orders that haven't been shipped yet. Each order line shows the order number, product name, buyer name, cargo company, and the estimated shipment deadline.
Step 3: Select Orders and Download Labels
Check the boxes next to the orders you want to print labels for. You can select up to 50 orders at a time in the merchant panel. Click the "Kargo Etiketi İndir" (Download Shipping Label) button at the top. Hepsiburada generates a PDF file containing the shipping labels — one label per page, formatted to 100×150mm.
Step 4: Open the PDF and Print
Open the downloaded PDF in your browser or PDF viewer. Use Ctrl+P to print. Select your thermal printer (or any printer) and make sure to set the paper size to 100×150mm. Disable "Fit to page" or "Scale to fit" — you want to print at actual size. If you're using an A4 laser printer, you'll need to adjust margins and scale manually, which often results in misaligned barcodes.
Step 5: Attach Labels to Packages
Cut the labels (if printed on A4) and attach them to the corresponding packages. Match the order number on the label to the order number on your packing list to ensure the right label goes on the right box.
The problems with this manual process become obvious once you're handling more than 20-30 orders per day:
- Speed: Downloading PDFs, opening them, printing, cutting — this workflow takes 2-3 minutes per batch of labels. At 200 orders/day, you're spending over an hour just on labels.
- Errors: When you're printing labels from PDF and matching them to packages by hand, mismatches happen. The wrong label on the wrong package means a customer gets someone else's order — a nightmare for your seller rating.
- No barcode verification: The manual process has zero validation. You can't scan a product barcode to verify it matches the shipping label. This is where most shipping errors originate.
- Bulk limitations: The seller panel limits selection to 50 orders at a time. If you have 500 orders to ship, that's 10 separate PDF downloads.
Skip the manual process — automate with LabelInn
Download LabelInn Free →Automating Hepsiburada Labels with LabelInn
LabelInn connects directly to Hepsiburada's Merchant API, pulling your orders automatically and generating perfectly formatted shipping labels — ready to print on your thermal printer with a single click. Here's how the automated workflow works:
Connect Your Hepsiburada Store
In LabelInn, go to Settings → Integrations → Hepsiburada. Enter your Hepsiburada Merchant API credentials (API key and secret, which you generate in the Hepsiburada seller panel under API Entegrasyonları). LabelInn establishes a secure connection and begins syncing your orders in real-time.
Auto-Pull New Orders
Once connected, LabelInn automatically fetches new orders from Hepsiburada every few minutes. You'll see them appear in the LabelInn order list with all the relevant details: order number, buyer information, product details, assigned cargo company, and tracking number. No need to log into the Hepsiburada seller panel at all.
One-Click Label Printing
Select one or more orders in LabelInn and click Print Labels. LabelInn generates the shipping label with the correct cargo barcode, buyer address, seller details, and Hepsiburada-compliant formatting — then sends it directly to your thermal printer. No PDF download, no file management, no print dialog. The label comes out of your printer in under 2 seconds.
Barcode Verification (Pick & Pack)
LabelInn's optional pick-and-pack mode lets you scan product barcodes before printing the shipping label. This ensures the product in the box matches the order. If there's a mismatch, LabelInn warns you before you seal the package. This single feature can reduce shipping errors by over 90%.
The time savings are dramatic. A seller processing 200 orders per day manually spends about 60-90 minutes on label printing. With LabelInn, the same 200 orders take under 10 minutes — a 6-9x speedup. During campaign days with 1,000+ orders, the difference between success and chaos often comes down to your label printing workflow.

Speed matters in Turkish e-commerce. Hepsiburada's seller performance metrics include shipment speed — the time between order confirmation and the package being scanned by the cargo company. Faster shipping improves your seller score, earns the "Hızlı Teslimat" badge, and increases your listing visibility in search results. Slow shipping means warnings, listing suppression, and eventually account suspension.
Bulk label printing is the single most impactful optimization for shipment speed. Here's how to do it efficiently:
Batch Selection
In LabelInn, you can select all pending orders with one click — there's no 50-order limit like the Hepsiburada panel. Select 100, 500, or even 1,000 orders and print all their labels in a single batch. LabelInn queues them to your thermal printer and they print sequentially at full speed — typically 3-5 labels per second on a modern thermal printer.
Sorting and Grouping
LabelInn lets you sort orders by cargo company before printing. This is critical for multi-carrier sellers: print all HepsiJet orders first, then all Yurtiçi Kargo orders, then Aras Kargo. When the cargo drivers arrive for pickup, each carrier's packages are already grouped together with the correct labels — no frantic last-minute sorting.
Print Queue Management
If your thermal printer jams mid-batch (it happens — especially with low-quality label rolls), LabelInn tracks which labels were successfully printed. You can resume from where you left off without reprinting labels that already came out correctly. The Hepsiburada PDF method offers no such recovery — you'd have to reprint the entire batch or manually figure out which labels are missing.
Multi-Item Orders
Hepsiburada orders can contain multiple items, sometimes requiring multiple packages. LabelInn handles multi-package orders correctly, generating a separate shipping label for each package with the correct partial weight and item list. The manual PDF download method sometimes merges multi-item orders into a single label, causing confusion at the cargo company.
Setting Up Your Thermal Printer for Hepsiburada Labels
If you're printing Hepsiburada shipping labels on an inkjet or laser printer with A4 paper, you're wasting time and money. A thermal label printer is the single best investment for any marketplace seller. Here's what you need to know for setup:
Recommended Thermal Printers
For Hepsiburada sellers, we recommend these printers based on daily order volume:
| Daily Orders | Recommended Printer | Price Range | Connection |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-50 | Xprinter XP-460B | ₺800-1,200 | USB |
| 50-200 | Zebra ZD220 / ZD421 | ₺3,000-6,000 | USB / Network |
| 200-1,000 | Zebra ZT411 / TSC TTP-247 | ₺8,000-15,000 | USB / Ethernet / Wi-Fi |
| 1,000+ | Zebra ZT610 / SATO CL4NX | ₺20,000+ | Ethernet / Wi-Fi |
Label Media
Use 100×150mm direct thermal labels on a roll with a 25mm or 40mm core (depending on your printer model). Direct thermal requires no ribbon — the printer heats the label surface to create the image. For Hepsiburada shipping labels, direct thermal is perfect because labels don't need to last more than a few days during transit. Buy labels in bulk: a box of 4,000 labels (8 rolls of 500) typically costs ₺300-500 from local suppliers.
LabelInn Driverless Setup
With LabelInn, you don't need to install printer drivers. Connect your thermal printer via USB or to your network, open LabelInn, and the printer appears automatically. This eliminates the most common pain point for new thermal printer owners — fighting with driver installations, especially on Windows 11 where driver compatibility issues are frequent. LabelInn communicates with your printer directly using its native command language (ZPL for Zebra, TSPL for TSC, ESC/POS for Xprinter, etc.).
Works with any thermal printer — no drivers needed

Here's a detailed feature-by-feature comparison of the manual Hepsiburada label printing process versus the LabelInn automated workflow:
| Feature | Manual (Seller Panel) | LabelInn Automation |
|---|---|---|
| Order sync | Manual refresh in browser | Auto-sync every few minutes |
| Label download | PDF download (50 orders max) | Direct to printer (unlimited) |
| Print speed | ~2-3 min per batch | 3-5 labels/second |
| Barcode verification | None | Scan-to-verify before print |
| Multi-carrier sorting | Manual | Auto-group by carrier |
| Print error recovery | Reprint entire batch | Resume from last printed |
| Driver required | Yes (for thermal printer) | No (driverless) |
| Platform | Web browser only | Windows, macOS, Android, iOS |
| Cost | Free | Free plan + paid integrations |
For sellers processing fewer than 10 orders per day, the manual method is workable. Beyond that threshold, the time cost, error rate, and stress of manual label printing make automation a clear winner. LabelInn's Hepsiburada integration pays for itself within the first week for most medium-volume sellers, just from the time savings alone.
Troubleshooting Common Hepsiburada Label Issues
Even with the right tools, Hepsiburada sellers frequently run into label-related problems. Here are the most common issues and their solutions:
Issue 1: Barcode Not Scanning at Cargo Hub
If the cargo company reports that your barcode isn't scannable, the problem is almost always print quality. Common causes: using low-quality label media (the thermal coating is too thin), print darkness set too low on your thermal printer, or scaling the PDF when printing (which distorts the barcode). Fix: Use quality direct thermal labels, increase print darkness to 15-20 (on a 0-30 scale), and always print at 100% scale. LabelInn automatically optimizes barcode resolution for your specific printer model.
Issue 2: Wrong Cargo Company on Label
Hepsiburada assigns cargo companies algorithmically. Sometimes you expect Yurtiçi Kargo but the label says HepsiJet, or vice versa. This isn't an error — it's Hepsiburada's logistics optimization. You must use the cargo company shown on the label. Giving the package to a different carrier will result in tracking failures and penalties. LabelInn displays the assigned carrier prominently for each order so you can sort packages correctly before pickup.
Issue 3: Label Prints Blank or All Black
This is a thermal printer calibration issue. Your printer needs to know the label size and gap distance (the space between labels on a roll). Fix: Run your printer's media calibration function (usually triggered by holding the Feed button for 5 seconds on most models). If using LabelInn, go to Printer Settings → Calibrate and LabelInn sends the calibration commands directly. See our detailed guide on fixing thermal printer issues on Windows 11.
Issue 4: Hepsiburada API Connection Fails
If LabelInn can't connect to Hepsiburada's API, check these common causes: (1) Your API key has expired — Hepsiburada requires periodic renewal. (2) Your seller panel session is locked due to a price or listing issue. (3) Hepsiburada's API servers are under maintenance (check Hepsiburada's merchant status page). Regenerate your API credentials in the seller panel and re-enter them in LabelInn.
Issue 5: Duplicate Labels Printed
This typically happens when you download the PDF from the seller panel, print it, then download again later and print again — without realizing some orders were already printed. LabelInn prevents this by tracking print status per order. Once a label is printed, it's marked as "Printed" and won't be included in subsequent batch prints unless you explicitly choose to reprint.

Download LabelInn Free →Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use LabelInn's free plan for Hepsiburada labels?
LabelInn's free plan includes unlimited thermal printer printing, label design, and barcode generation. The Hepsiburada API integration (auto-pull orders) requires a Starter or Pro plan. However, you can still use LabelInn's free plan to design and print custom labels if you manually enter order data or import from Excel.
Which thermal printer is best for Hepsiburada sellers?
For most Hepsiburada sellers, the Xprinter XP-460B (budget) or Zebra ZD220 (reliable) are the best choices. Both support 100×150mm labels and work driverlessly with LabelInn. High-volume sellers (500+ orders/day) should consider the Zebra ZT411 or TSC industrial models for faster throughput and longer duty cycles.
Does LabelInn work with HepsiJet, Yurtiçi, and Aras Kargo?
Yes. LabelInn generates labels formatted for whichever cargo company Hepsiburada assigns to each order — HepsiJet, Yurtiçi Kargo, Aras Kargo, MNG Kargo, Sürat Kargo, and PTT Kargo are all supported. The cargo barcode format and label layout are handled automatically.
Can I print Hepsiburada labels on a regular (inkjet/laser) printer?
Yes, but it's not recommended for volume sellers. Hepsiburada generates PDF labels in 100×150mm format. You can print them on A4 paper on any printer, then cut them to size. However, this wastes paper, time, and produces lower-quality barcodes. A thermal printer pays for itself within weeks for any seller shipping more than 10 orders per day.
Can I print Trendyol and Hepsiburada labels from the same app?
Absolutely. LabelInn integrates with both Hepsiburada and Trendyol, as well as Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce, and other platforms. You can manage orders from all your sales channels in one place and print all shipping labels from a single unified interface. No more switching between multiple seller panels.
What label size does Hepsiburada use?
Hepsiburada shipping labels are 100×150mm (4×6 inches). This is the global standard for shipping labels and is compatible with virtually all 4-inch thermal label printers.
Conclusion: The Fastest Way to Print Hepsiburada Shipping Labels
Hepsiburada is a competitive marketplace, and shipping speed is one of the key performance metrics that determines your visibility and sales. Every minute spent manually downloading PDFs, fighting with printer drivers, and matching labels to packages is a minute you're not spending on growing your business.
