Re: Dymo label printer
 

Thank you I will give some positives and negatives when it actually comes. Hoping it's an eBay seller who don't mark it as dispatched and just sends it, had those before, but I sent him a message yesterday and no reply.

@Play Yes, you can print series (or batches) of labels using DYMO Label. There are, in fact, 2 functions that allow it: and .

Zebra is a fine alternative as are Brother Q-series

Re: Dymo label printer
 

It came today and I would recommend it.

I haven't done the "smart paste" function, and just copy and paste the address as I go along. I sell so many different products it's too confusing to print them all out at once and better to do them 1 at a time as I go through my orders. If you're selling multiples of the same product I can see where that would be very useful and fast.

I have had 0 issues with it spitting out extra labels or taking it's sweet ass time doing something. I have left it for hours, then pressed print and it's printed instantly. It really does print as fast as the video.

Price £52-55 on eBay 10/10 - Very cheap, but looks and feels sturdy and I have had no issues. I will update this post if I do run into some problems.

What you get 10/10 - You get 3 different size labels (quiet a few of each too), a USB lead and two power cables UK and EU I think it was, will check tomorrow. These are both individual plugs and not adapters. The package includes the installation disc and a start up guide, but didn't open it, so can't comment on how clear it is.

Ease of setup 7/10 - I plugged it in via the supplied USB and it installed the drivers. The software has to be downloaded or installed from the disc. Here is the only issue with the printer. If you Google for the software it takes a while to find it, and when I found a link on their site I clicked it and found it no longer exists. That's pretty shoddy to be honest. I decided to use the disc that came with it and installed the software expecting it to be an older version, and surprise it was, but it pops up with a message and takes you to the correct download page for the new software. The hosting they're using sucks really bad and I usually download files at 4.5MBs and from this site I was getting 200KBs by the end of it. That really made the 120MB file drag out. Loading the labels into the printer is very easy and it printed flawlessly at the first attempt.

Ease of use 8/10 - The only issue with getting free labels with the printer is it doesn't tell you what size they are. They just come in a black bag with nothing on it, so you have to guess which size option you need to choose in the software. The labels which come with it are pretty small and only 1/3 are big enough for shipping labels. The others are used for return addresses. The software is detailed and has many size options, once you know what labels you need and the size/font sizes you need you're good to go.

9/10

Re: Dymo label printer
 

I think I will be investing in one of these with my ebay earnings :)

Re: Dymo label printer
 

@xShevaa7x Thanks! Great detailed review.

A word of advice about smart paste/selling variation of products... If you see how the video has an excel spreadsheet, two colums, you could put address on one column and the product your selling on the other, so when the label prints you will know who its going to and what product its for. That way you will save time copy-paste each and every address.

As soon as I click on the label size I want, I get this error:

Re: Dymo label printer
 

Try a different computer...

I have purchased the 4XL DYMO, pretty excellent! Does the job quick! Easy to setup 10/10. Didnt have to waste labels as some did to get it up and running. Pretty smooth going I must say.

Re: Dymo label printer
 

Yea I'll try it on my Mac

Re: Dymo label printer
 

Yup it works fine on my Mac!

Re: Dymo label printer
 

Great, must have just been an issue with Windows/possibly drivers.

Try new user account, and fresh install.

Or another windows pc

Im using macbook pro/ bootcamp, and run my dymo off of windows bootcamp, works fine.
