I was wondering if you could use clickstamp for postage only - no address label.....if so, what size labels (how many to a sheet)?

Hi, Clickstamp prints on Avery #5164 ( 3-1/3" x 4" or equivelent - 6 labels per page or on certain standard size envelopes. It prints the postage info and the address you are sending it to. You have to print a separate return address label if you want one. I used it but stopped. If something goes wrong between your computer and the printer, you just lost whatever dollar amount of postage you were trying to print, no way to recover it, get a refund etc. It just vanished! Got way too expensive if I was trying to send 6 Priority Mail packages, it would be possible to loose $30 to $50 or more. Also, when I was using it, it didn't support Delivery Confirmation. You had to print an additional "Postage Correction" label for the cost of the Delivery Confirmation service and stick it on the package also.

"Disappearing postage" has been a big problem for users especially when shipping high value packages. The USPS just approved Endicia to allow postage refunds even if you don't have any physical evidence of the misprint. The rules are:
1. You must be using some form of *integral* electronic delivery confirmation (Priority Mail, Media Mail or Express Mail).
2. You must create another label with a new DC barcode to the same address for the same amount and same postage class on the same day.
This new process really protects the end user from postage "losses" which are out of their control.
