We need softwares for LINUX
on March 8, 2023
Posted by: Jose Orrego
It would be great if one day they develop native software for LINUX, those of us who use LINUX deserve to be able to use DYMO printers on our computers.

Worst labelmaker
on March 8, 2023
Posted by: GM_2023
from Arkansas
Worst label maker I have ever used. A lot of problems and I have to spend a lot of time just to figure out what's wrong. The label maker is supposed to save time. This does not.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

twin only?
on February 13, 2023
Posted by: JDapen
from NY, NY
I've used this for years and loved it. New computer, new software and now I can't choose the 2nd printer side! It will only print one type on one side.
Is there a fix?

Hit and Miss
on January 25, 2023
Posted by: Skullyt
from San Francisco
Our Company purchased two of the DYMO LabelWriter 450 Twin Turbos. We had to have our IT department authorize and install the software and after they installed it, I had issues with the user interface, it was not very user-friendly when adjusting or resizing text to fit within the label. I installed the software on an old personal computer and the software worked great! I also installed it on a Macbook and the interface is slightly different but, they both work flawlessly. I enjoy using the LabelWriter, only wish it had Wifi or Bluetooth connectivity so I could use it across the room but, I ended up purchasing a 20-foot cable and now, I can print labels from across the room. Would I recommend the product? Yes, but not for a large corporation setting due to Administrative limitations.

Printer is printing labels of lines and blanks
on December 5, 2022
Posted by: JFILI
from Eastchester, NY
All of a sudden my Dymo 450 Twin Turbo has started feeding through blank labels after I have printed one label, causing me to throw out many labels. Today, the right side, which has smaller labels, just started printing of these lined labels and would not stop. I had to open the cover and rip the labels so they would stop. Your printers use to be my favorite peripheral device, but what is happening now is very frustrating. I would have rated this printer a 5 in the past, but now it seems to have a brain of its own. Labels are too expensive for this to be happening constantly. If you can tell me how to correct this problem, I'll go back to highly recommending it, but can't now.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with our printer. Printing blank lines and spitting many labels is because of printer stuck in self test mode, it happens when one of the front button was press and hold for 7 - 10 seconds. To get out of this unplug the printer from both computer and power, then press the front button 20 times and try printing. Your valuable feedback is important for us to improve ourselves.
If you are still having issues, please reach out to us via our website or through LiveChat. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time.
Thank you!

Awful software experience
on October 14, 2022
Posted by: SteveC123
from Dayton, OH
When I "updated" to the DYMO Connect software, I have been unable to routinely even use my label printer at all. I simply cannot relay on my LabelWriter 450 Twin Turbo to work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

DO NOT USE THE CONNECT SOFTWARE--IT SUCKS
on September 28, 2022
Posted by: DYMOjunkie
from Kansas City, MO
Since 2000, I have owned and used LABELWRITER 450 TWIN TURBO DYMOs. I have one at work and two at home in 2 different locations. Because I have ADHD, these are a tremendous support. I use them as my memory and, believe me, I label everything, as well as using them for the usual boring tasks like postal labels and return address labels. I keep all my passwords in a separate file, as well as credit card info, etc. All of those storage boxes in the basement are labeled on 3 sides with a shipping label. You can't believe how much time it saves me to see what is in boxes stored in the garage and basement, as well as my many sewing and hobby supplies.
Having said that, I have to agree with JJones review that the new CONNECT software truly SUCKS and wastes time. It is not as flexible as the simple, original "Label Software" that I strongly prefer. Call Label Software legacy or call it whatever you want, but delete the CONNECT software if you downloaded it.
PRO-TIP: If you need or want to be a power user (i.e., you hardly have time to go to the bathroom at work), then buy extra spindles and load them with any label you expect to use. At home and at work, I keep extra spindles at the ready in my desk drawer for 30352 White address labels; Shipping Labels; 30347 small labels that I use for personal return address labels; 2-up file folder labels, and name badge labels to name a few. No, I don't work for DYMO. DYMO has to work for me.
CONNECT software is DYMO's equivalent of NEW COKE. (PS, my ratings are based on the old Label Software.)
