The easiest way to print your shipping labels from Fedex is to use a commercial platform, such as XPSShip (free) or ShipStation (paid but great). They are approved Fedex partners and use your negotiated rates to provide you with a 4 x 6 shipping label which you can then easily print to Phomemo. You will also be able to compare rates from other carriers and pick the best option.
We recommend this because Fedex Ship Manager is a bit cumbersome to set up. If you contact Fedex for support, they may inform you that they only provide support for printers that are supplied directly by them.
If you would like to use Fedex Ship Manager, please download and install the latest version from the Fedex Website.
During installation, you will be prompted to call Fedex to obtain your activation code. After verifying your account information, your activation code will be emailed to you.
Note: Fedex Ship Manager software requires a few more steps than other platforms to work. Essentially, We need to install Phomemo as a EPL printer to work with Fedex Ship Manager.
