My ProLabel Express, the very one sold by ShipStation, will not print since I upgraded to MacOS 27. Are there any thermal label printers that are compatible with MacOS 27?

Hi Austinite,

Before buying a new printer, your ProLabel Express should still work! Major macOS updates can reset printer settings and disable third-party drivers.

Here is a quick checklist to get it running again:

  1. Reinstall the Driver: Download and reinstall the latest ProLabel Express Mac driver from our setup guide.

  2. Check Privacy & Security: Go to your Mac's System Settings > Privacy & Security to make sure macOS didn't block the installer or USB permissions.

  3. Reset the Printing System: In System Settings > Printers & Scanners, right-click the printer list, select Reset Printing System, and re-add the printer.

  4. Restart ShipStation Connect: Quit the ShipStation Connect app completely and reopen it.

Could you provide a specific link to the “latest ProLabel Express Mac driver from our setup guide”, please? There are several pages that have that language, but I can’t tell which one has the latest version.

 

Thanks
