What camera should I use for Etsy product photos?

Your phone. Modern smartphones take better product photos than most dedicated cameras in the hands of a non-photographer. Use the main camera (not selfie), get close, and ensure good lighting.

Do I need a label printer for Etsy?

Not to start. Print labels on regular paper and tape them to packages. Once you are shipping 5+ orders per day, a thermal label printer saves significant time and looks more professional.
