Once the printer is installed, and as long as the printer is not unplugged thereafter from the power socket there are no issues. But if I turn off the printer, the next attempt to print results in jams, ghost print jobs (where the the machine keeps unspooling anywhere from 5 to 15 blank labels at a time), and also out-sized printing. In short, a great amount of frustration and wastage. After that initial bizarre behavior the printer works fine. Unless again if you happen unplug the printer, which I have had to do sometimes to move it to another location in the office, and try printing again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice, but only prints one label after each restart
on September 6, 2018
Posted by: eyeless
Been happy with this and do not use it often from my Mac, which is good as I never (the last couple of years) have been able to print more than one label before restarting the Dymo to print one more. Was seeing the updated drivers now 8.5.2 and was thinking to download in the hope (not really, but a little) that it would make it possible to print more than one label, but the download links are not working ... .

Hello, this is Maciej from DYMO Consumer Care. I am sorry to hear about the LabelWriter 450 issue you have encountered. It is advised to have the latest DYMO software, which contains all the necessary drivers, installed on the computer. It is available in the downloads section on dymo.com website. There is a possibility to print more than one label by changing the number of labels that should be printed next to the "print" button in DYMO Label software. If you need any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us through the contact link on our website www.dymo.com
It’s quick and super easy to change out labels! It’s everything that I expected and more.

Major Connectivity Issues With Printer
on February 16, 2020
Posted by: frustratedprinter
from Oregon
Device works fine and software is mostly user friendly. Printer randomly disconnected and now no longer works. I am unable to locate the printer and have tried removing and relocating the printer with Windows 10 add printer wizard. Have also tried complete uninstall of software and drivers, but it's still not working. This is apparently a known issue. DYMO, this is unacceptable at this point. If your software is unable to locate the printer and assist the user with installation, IT IS NOT USER FRIENDLY.

Works well, but address import does not work
on April 9, 2020
Posted by: Daddy Dave
from Sheridan, WY
I switched computers which required a fresh download of Dymo Connect. A feature that I liked in the previous version is GONE! I had over a hundred addresses in the previous version that I'm unable to import into Dymo Connect. The Dymo Connect application doesn't recognize that any files even exist in the source directory. I can easily export *.CSV of the addresses that I want but DC won't see them. This is a feature that does not work. I'd be a happier customer if a listed feature worked. Even so - it does print fine. The previous version of the Win10 app was better than the newer version.

Continuously on Pause
on July 28, 2023
Posted by: Frustrated01
I bought this 3 months ago and it will not stay connected to the network. It continuously says paused and every time I print a label I have to unplug it and reinstall and then play with it for an hour to get it to print again. EVERY. TIME. The driver updates are not up to speed with the Apple software. It is very frustrating. I am trying to run a business.

To resolve this issue ensure the printer sharing complies with the standard method on our help center on dymo.com. Please note that printer sharing is not a DYMO feature, and we are unable to support it. As an alternative we offer our LabelWriter Print Server which is responsible for sharing your device on the network. Please check the PrintServer Compatibility on our website.

on September 19, 2023
Posted by: janiceihg
Worst printer ever. Won't load labels properly, runs through an entire spool trying to load. then wont' print. continuous problems, would NEVER recommend
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from Dymo.comBy Cynthia, Dymo, September 20, 2023
Hi Janice.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
If the printer is feeding excessively, we recommend cleaning the sensors as they may be dirty and thus preventing the labels from being fed properly. Kindly navigate to our Help Center in dymo.com for a guide on how to clean the printer.
If the labels are running continuously with lines on them , it ,means that the front cover is not attached properly, please remove the front cover and re-attach it properly.
If you are still having issues (If you have more questions or feedback), please reach out to us via our website or through LiveChat. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time.
Thank you! DYMO® Consumer Care
