Will I need to purchase labels from DYMO to print or can I buy cheaper labels on amazon to use

You do NOT need to use Dymo brand labels. The warranty thing is just to scare you to use their overpriced labels. I've been using third party labels for two plus years and printed thousands of labels for my home business with ZERO issues.

The labels need to have a small hole between each label for the printer to detect where the labels end. You can buy Dymo labels or Dymo compatible labels. But if you just buy any labels without that hole, then the labels will just keep feeding while the printer looks for the next hole.

I use Dymo labels because 1. Using non Dymo labels will void your warranty. 2. Non Dymo labels leave a sticky residue on the printer that may make the printer not function correctly.

Don't buy DYMO printer. You can get a Zebra printer and get free labels from UPS. DYMO tries to draw you in with a lower price for printer, but over the long run of paying for labels you will pay a lot more. I found that if I paid $100-$200 more for a Zebra I would save $3000-$4000 per year on labels.

You can buy cheaper labels. We use House labels and they work great. Susan - Owner Paradise Arcade Shop, Hawaii

When I purchased another brand of the Stamps, they feed correctly and stop because of the holes, but the first character along the whole left size is always cut off. Everyone else seems to be able to do it, so I can't figure out the problem. I don't see anywhere to adjust the alignment.

It works with normal 6X4 thermal labels where you can purchase anywhere. It does not have to be from Dymo

Yes, all labels are compatible with all dymos, we have three different dymo labelwriters and the labels are interchangeable.

It requires stamps labels that are approved by the USPS. I've always bought mine directly from Dymo.

Hi. Yes, you can indeed use this printer with the Ebay software to print labels, just be aware the Ebay software does not directly support Thermal Printers on the Mac (it does on the PC, but not on the Mac). See my original post where I explain in step-by-step detail exactly how to use the DYMO printer with the Ebay software. It involves opening the Ebay label in Apple's Preview program, cropping the label, and then printing the label directly from the Preview program. That method works and the printed label looks great, only it would be a lot more convenient and wouldn't require as many workaround steps if Ebay directly supported Thermal Printers on the Mac. Hope this helps.

I tried with no luck. Ended up with another printer for amazon labels. Haven't tried in a year so they may have changed it.

The Dymo is a thermal printer, it uses no ink, therefore it never needs replacement ink. I have been labeling for the past 18 months using paper labels and most of the time the letters have not faded. The only paper label that has faded is on a item I handle on a daily basis, I would think the normal grease of my hands may cause the fading.

I use my Dymo LetraTag for creating bacle or cord labels. They are fantastic for this purpose. Clear printing, no smearing, easy to read, sticks well.

Hi Thad. I don't use the labels on fabric but the quality seems to be the same as the Dymo brand. We have been very happy with them. I hope that helps.

I think so, not familiar with Zebra brand but I've run through plenty of non-dymo brand labels and stamps until recently. please note that if you intend to use this for postage you'll have to use dymo stamps only at a 10X premium versus others that are available. If I recall it works out to about 10C per stamp.

I have DYMO LABEL WRITER 4XL. This is a very good thermal printer - no ink needed. And also you can regulate different types of stickers: from 1 inch width to 4 inch. To print USPS shipping labels you need at least 4 inch width - the one i have.

I didn't write the description for this listing as I'm just another seller who is selling a used one. This particular model only uses label rolls without cartridges as far as I understand. It is only the DYMO 450 Duo Model that also uses the D1 Tape Labels. Sorry for the confusion, I'm not sure why it lists that for this model. Please refer to the Dymo.com website to verify as well.

No idea. Completely unable to make it work with previous versions, even with Dymo tech support, so I gave up and returned it. Using a standalone label maker (from Epson).

One of my recent orders for Dymo labels were generic and not in the box. They did not work, and I need to send them back and have not had time. So in answer to your question, I did not receive what I had ordered, or thought I had ordered based on multiple orders against this item.

I have received original Dymo brand labels every time I have ordered them through the Amazon listing.

Authentic blank Dymo Stamps. Other manufacturers won't do. That's all that's needed to use this scale and that's only if you have the LabelWriter 400 Turbo or other Dymo printers that'll print Dymo Stamps. The scale will weigh up to two pounds, but if you want to weigh more than two pounds then you must sign up with Dymo for $9.99 a month to weigh packages up to 10 pounds. If you weigh lots of packages monthly then this is a good deal. I don't, so I just use the scale to weigh up to 2 lbs. The scale is completely accurate as well. I've weighed boxes here on the Dymo scale and took them to the post office to verify the weight and postage, and both were right on. Try it, you'll like it. Authentic blank Dymo Stamps.

Zebra and Dymo labels work fine; I use generic labels from u-line (specifically 2 1⁄4 x 1 1⁄4) I see that you had an additional question regarding printing of ISBN barcodes- the labels I just mentioned are a perfect size for printing ISBN barcodes in a size that makes them easily readable by barcode scanners.

I don't know about a direct comparison but I have found the Dymo labels to be consistently good with no problems ever. I have been using a Dymo for approximately 10 years.
