DYMO Monochrome LabelWriter 450 Twin Turbo

I had one of these and it finally died so I got this one. I love this because I can print either letter size labels or package size labels. It is so convenient and easy. The software is easy to install and it has an address book (or listing) so once you input your addresses, you can in future just click on the address you want to print out. I use this all the time and it is such a time saver. Plus any letters or packages I send, the address is clearly printed out. I love this product!

I was so excited about this printer and the way it would streamline my business. Only 2 out of 10 stamps print. It sticks and makes a super loud noise and then prints between to stamp stickers. You have to reprint it several times to get the correct stamps which takes time. Plus it is costing me the stamp stickers when I am having to throw out 80% of them. My assistant has spent hours on the phone with customer support with no solution. Support has been great they just don’t have a suggestion that works. We have switched sides of the machine, we make sure the spool of stickers is not loose and the wheel is tightened properly. It is so frustrating. We have tried 2 machines and both do this. One of which I cannot get a refund on because I didn’t open the box until after my return window had closed. I would like the manufacturer to trade my dual label printer for another version that is not dual as those do not appear to be unusable like this one. I will update my review if I receive a response.

I have the Dymo 450 single and I have been using it for years, but I have a new box that needed smaller stickers and this was the best option out there. Before we were changing out label sizes constantly. Now I can just print everything I need in one shot which was two sizes at the same time. My old single printer is going to a different part of the warehouse so everything got way more efficient here! LOVE THIS!

Love being able to switch between file folder labels and address labels. Getting file folder labels to center correctly required working id advanced printer settings. The user interface could be more elegant. You have to look closely to be sure which label you are about to print. These are small things compared to the convenience the machine offers.

If my software did not require I use this specific brand of printer, I would not. It often seems to lose it's mind and just not work requiring it to be powered down and back up again to re-sync with the computer. The windows driver is wonky and does not want to stay connected. Would highly recommend a power switch to aid in this. The software that you have to download for it is not very well thought out either. Usable, just not comfortable.

Dymo was ready to use, just had to plug in and load labels and printed within 15 minutes of opening the box.

I ordered this label maker for an additional one at our office. When it arrived, I was suspicious as this had a aftermarket generic power cord. After setting it all up, I couldn't get this unit to work to save my life. After speaking with Dymo support, this unit based off serial number was made for use in the UK and would not work for Windows 10 or any of the standard US labels.

Bought used - former owner probably couldn’t figure out how to clear one jammed side. Popped off front and cleared in a few seconds. Love this machine. Multiple labels loaded as needed. Highly recommended. New Dymo app is cool and much more functional.
