FAQ: I can’t find my label size in the Dymo Label Software

Review: Dymo LabelWriter 450 Review

Labelwriter Review by I. Phillipson, Independent Reviewer

LabelWriter 450 is the most popular of Dymo’s label writing range and the deserved market leader in its sector.

It is an entry level printer designed primarily for printing address labels, though it can be used for barcodes, name badges, appointment cards and filing labels. The 600×300 dpi graphics is an improvement over the previous model, so the lettering is clear and legible even when printing in very small text, and the 51 labels per minute print speed is plenty fast enough for most users.
