This is a step that most new to dropshipping miss altogether, so when I got asked this question I was pretty excited for the person asking it, because I knew they were brand new to dropshipping.  The reason is its a big deal is you want repeat customers, you do not want to reveal the source of your product and risk being skipped altogether next time. 

If you are working with a legitimate dropshipper, like the ones found at The Shipper, then all you have to do is ask the dropshipper what steps need to be taken to get your packing material (literature etc) and your shipping labels on the boxes.  Usually they have the capability to print them right there, and for an extra charge take care of the whole process for you.  If they do not, (and you must ask them remember) then you really need to contact a printing place and have them make some shipping labels that you can then send to your supplier.  

Like I said, if they are a legitimate dropshipper, then you really do not need to worry about them accepting the labels.  Most of them are 100% aware of how the whole process works, and will take care of you, IF YOU ASK THEM TO!

If you do nothing, and ask nothing about the shipping labels, they probably will just use the ones they have already.  That could be bad for repeat business for you.  You want to make sure that the customer only knows about you, and the only reason they should ever find out about the manufacturer is if they have to send something back.

I went through a horrible experience when I first got into dropshipping because of labels.  My supplier was sending their catalog (and shipping labels with their address) with their prices (which of course were better then mine) with every order that I got.  I was wondering forever why I was never getting return customers and more orders.  I placed and order myself, and found out what the supplier was doing.  They were basically telling my customers to buy from them next time!  Needless to say, I dropped that supplier, found a new one, and that mistake has never been made again! 

Take the time, and spend the money it will take to get shipping labels with YOUR logo on it.  It will save you money (and headaches) in the long run!  A legitimate dropshipper will never hesitate to take care of you in the way I have described.
