After you register and sign in to your new Orange Mailer account, there are **two important steps** you should complete so you can access all features (including batch printing).

1. Add Your Ship From Address

USPS requires a real physical address as your Ship From address. A P.O. Box or UPS Store address is **not** accepted.

**How to add it:**

1. Go to the **Get Started** page.

2. Enter your **Ship From** address, phone number, and email.

3. Check the box next to **“Update your default”**.

4. Click the green **“Show available rates”** button.

Your Ship From address is now saved. You can update it anytime by repeating these steps.

2. Update Your Admin / Default Settings

1. Click the **Settings** tab (in the left menu).

2. Complete the following sections:

   - **Time Zone** — Make sure it is set correctly.

   - **Packaging Default** — Choose your most common service, package type, and weight. This will automatically pre-fill these fields when creating labels (very useful if you mostly ship First Class or use the same box size).

   - **Label Settings** — Add or edit the custom text line that appears on your labels, and select your default label size.

   - **Email** — Confirm that the email address on your profile is correct.

Once these steps are completed, your account will be fully set up and ready to use all features.
