- 1Zebra zd421 or other printer with similar specifications

- How to decide which parcel size to specify
The parcel size affects the shipping cost. The largest of the two values is taken to calculate delivery rates:
- 1Actual weight
- 2Volumetric weight
- Calculation formula:
Volumetric weight (kg) = (Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm)) / 4 000
For example:
A small parcel is a shipment of up to 2 kg, and a medium parcel is up to 10 kg.
If the parcel weighs 1.8 kg and the dimensions of the parcel are 30 cm x 30 cm x 30 cm:
- 1Actual weight = 1.8 kg
- 2Volumetric weight = 30x30x30 / 4 000 = 6.75 kg
Thus, the delivery rate will be calculated by the volumetric weight, so you need to choose the "Medium" size.
- Why the required country of delivery is not available on the list
Available delivery destinations depend on the country of dispatch and are displayed in the "Country of Delivery" section when creating a parcel. If there is no required country in the "Countries of delivery" section, this direction has not yet been launched for the country from which you want to send the parcel.
