The problem might simply be a translation error.
In which case:
Export the shipping label document to a PDF file and print the PDF file as in image.
Disclaimer: This answer might be entirely wrong in context. Laser printers and laser printer applications may preclude the necessity of the printer having to translate the data at all.
