Best Way to Label Packs?

I know that handwriting labels is a big red flag, so that's a no go. I know that in order to ship packages, I'll have to get the Priority labels with tracking. I'm just unsure as to what the smartest way to acquire these labels and affix them to packages is. I've heard it's unwise to use the self service kiosk at the post office because it has a camera, so I'll have to print labels out at home. I've only got a regular inkjet printer in my possession, should I just print the labels out on regular paper and then affix them to the priority envelopes with clear tape, or is that too a red flag? I know that I could buy 8.5"x11" adhesive label paper, but the cheapest I've found it for is $1/page on Wal-Mart's website. Is this what most vendors do? I've looked around, but there doesn't seem to be any info on this subreddit regarding the printing of the labels themselves, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Print out the address on a piece of paper, staple, glue and or stick that on the pack.

Wow. Mailing 101.

Browse the aisles of staples. You're gonna have to dish out money for these things and good Opsec but it's worth it.

Printing onto an adhesive paper is probably the best way to go. That being said, I don't think that glue or clear tape would be too bad, if you want to go that route.

USPS sells a special printer that does just priority labels

print it on sticky paper, might want to use publisher if you're printing labels

you could make em in wordpress and print them out and tape them to the boxes like mentioned above, or you can get some sort of label machine that will print them out

Go to staples, buy 300 1" x 3" inkjet labels for like $10. On the back of the label package there should be instructions on how to get the according .doc template.

Handwriting in itself is not going to get you flagged, I get ebay, etsy, whole bunc hof shit handwritten, my mom handwrites me care packages, my roommate does too, what makes this special? It's in your head.

Just don't make a pattern. Or blatantly drugs. Seriously. Check out the post office outside of the Whitehall St. R train stop at 4:45PM and see if any of the wall street type with express packages printed the label. Hint: if they ran there from the law firms near by it's likely they haven't.
