Thank you. I bought the turbo for 55 dollars new on ebay and was told i got the wrong machine..... that any Dymo other than the XL was a waste of money. Was feeling sad, so its good to know the smaller model is useful.
Maybe you can help me since I can’t find any answers. Can I print from an iPad? We purchased the Dymo 450 but I need to print off of an iPad. On the Brother printer, I am able to upload the software on my Mac and with the wifi print off of the iPad...if not from the Dymo 450, what printer would allow this?
I’ve already received and connected DYMO 450 TURBO. This is a game changer - so fast and convenient. A must have for Amazon Sellers. Thanks again for your help ❤️👏
Help!! I’m thinking about buying a Dymo. Not sure which one tho... I need it mostly to print circular/oval labels for candles, handmade soaps, personal handmade products, ect... I noticed Dymo discontinued their circle labels. Are there any other brands, (circle or oval labels) I can buy that will work with the Dymo? And which Dymo would work and be best for this?!
What if I don’t have a computer but for my business I use Shopify can I connect my phone to it so it can print out shipper labels for my packages ? Which one would I need to get ?
As far as i can tell none of them are bluetooth so you would need a computer pretty sure. It looks like there are cheaper different brand label makers that have bluetooth
You CAN print the 4x6 labels on the 450 using 4 inch long labels and setting your print to SHRINK TO FIT. Are they standard 4x6? No. But they are still completly readable and scannable by the USPS.
When I do shrink to fit it does not work. I have to take a screenshot and save as a photo and copy into DYMO. Such a hassle. Can you give a detailed step by step so I can print on the 4x6?
I have the 450 turbo I been printing USPS labels for about 1 year I sell on Ebay mercari and poshmark will the 2844 print on all those for usps fedex ups for those formats? If not what printer would you recommend I print from a desktop so wireless/ bluetooth is not a factor for me thanks
Mercari does not have any 4x6 formatting. You would have to do the address copy/paste by hand into pirateship and in that case your 450 turbo can print 2x7 on pirate ship.
@@thecollegepicker ok well why do you think would be the best printer for what I do from being I dont need bluetooth and price is always a factor I just started using the 450 because I had it from doing fba in the past
Hello, I have a 450 currently but it's dying out. What would you suggest for an alternative? I exclusively print 2 in x 3 1/2 in appointment cards at my business if that helps. Thank you.
What do you mean by dying out? Is the print fading or failing? If so, the thermal print head needs cleaning. Dymo makes cleaning cards, or just use a generic 4x6 one cut in half. Or you can just use a business card soaked in isopropyl alcohol and run it through.
Thanks for your video , 8m confused what to get , Which one of them or dymo in general is good for fine Jewellery barbell style tag ? To add some details and barcode
I’m going back and forth on all the Dymos - I ship with pirate ship but use Shopify platform. I want to be able to use wide format and the 2x7 labels. Which printer can I do that with?
It wouldn't be efficient to do both. You can do everything 4x6 with any 4x6 printer. The printer has to have the width for 4" to work. Hopefully that makes sense. 🙏 Thanks for watching
That’s what I want to know I sell from Shopify as well. I want to know if I have to use pirate to print the perfect label horizontally. I use 2x7 labels and they keep coming out wrong somebody help 😫
I have a Dymo 450 which I purchased second hand for 40 bucks. Having just started out on ebay I needed something and thought this was a good deal....till I watched your other videos. I haven't used it yet as My computer scrapped out on me. My question is should I invest in another type or suck it up and use the dymo who are picky about their labels or go for a better thermal option? I'm a little confused now.
@@thecollegepicker Thanks for the quick response. Wished I'd come across your channel sooner. Great content on all vids. Smash it with a hammer...😂😂 that would be fun.
I just purchased the Dymo 450 twin turbo. I am producing a high volume of labels. Which printer do you recommend for high volume and also speed is very important.
@@thecollegepicker thanks for the response. I have been using the Dymo 4XL for some time now, and sometimes when I print more then 500 labels it slows down. I am hoping that the twin turbo will do a better job. I have been thinking to purchase also a label rewinder, but they seem to be very expensive. Can you recommend any label rewinder?
@@Gottham8 The dymo 4xl only holds 220 label 4x6 size rolls, how do you print 500 labels at one time? Are they smaller labels than 4x6? I have not used a label rewinder. Maybe that will be something I need to explore =)
The size of labels I use is 2 5/18 x 4" and the roll contains 300 labels. Right now I have always to insert a new roll when the request is larger than 300 labels. I print 50 labels at the time as I do need to fold them. So if I had a rewinder I would probably print 295 labels at once and then insert a new roll. At some point I had a request about 2k labels, so the rewinder will definitely help.
DYMO has an app on the play store. I know you said at the beginning of the video no Bluetooth. Just curious because I have a tablet. Needing to print labels for catering. Any help would be much appreciated. I know you say no android but curious if things may have changed. Or if you could recommend a tablet friendly printer.
5:00 Telling us that the difference between A and B is 20 labels per minute is pretty much useless information without saying what the numbers actually are. If it's 30 vs 50, that's a big deal. If it's 900 vs 920, then not so much.
Is the speed really that big of a deal unless you have a huge business? If your printing 5 labels at a time do you really need it in less then a min really a issue? Im looking to buy a cheaper label printer for ebay, macari ect. I just dont see the speed of the labels to be very big of a deal
@@raid_or_die8962 If the speed difference is 2 labels per minute vs. 22 labels per minute, it's a big deal. It's a HUGE deal. If it's 30 labels vs. 50 labels per minute, then maybe not so much.

Well thats a good point the fact woulda bin helpful but for 99% of people using this for ebay, etsy, mecari or what not if you get 5 orders to fill and it takes 30 seconds per label youd be 2 and a half mins, if you dont have a single extra min of time to wait then i guess its somthing to worry about
Yes they just came out with the 550 and 550 turbo. New video coming soon! They added chips to the roll to force you to buy dymo only labels. The turbo model has an Ethernet port which is nice but the new chip feature is awful 😭. Check out the 5XL two new videos on my channel it's a bigger version of the 550.
@@rjc4370Basically the same - nearly identical specifications and compatibilities with insignificant differences that won't make much difference in any business in a day to day operational setting. This video is focused more on a 400 series vs 4xl comparison and I apologize for the misunderstanding.
I’ve been wanting to get a label printer for my small business for the longest time and finally pulled the trigger. I’m glad I did ! This machine is great ruclips.net/user/postUgkxw55tQTywUAAOsbrlwxONZULry77sFF1Q and the blue/green color matches the rest of the accents in my office. My favorite part is how small the footprint is. It’s less than 1/4 the size of my regular printer.Set up was fairly easy. Seller will email you a link with video instructions Which I found to be more helpful than the written instructions. I use a Mac and had no issues. They even included an adaptor for USB to USB-c which is great because I’m always losing mine! I had a few issues getting the labels to print properly and wasted quite a few sheets. You need to play around with the settings to get everything adjusted just right. If you have the wrong settings, it’ll crop off the edges or feed through blank labels. These aren’t issues with the machine though, just user error.
Found me the 450 at a garage sale today! $3. Thanks to you, I Couldn’t pass it up!
Wow what a great price!
with the dymo 450 using 99019 2-5/16" x 7.5" labels, is there anyway to make the address bigger and maybe lose the QR code? Looks very hard to read.
How much is the printer, please, and where can I buy one?
Best to buy the 4XL. It will give you access to all Dymo label formats.
Do you have to change the paper out of the 4XL to switch from address shipping labels to barcode printing?
Yes.
Thank you. I bought the turbo for 55 dollars new on ebay and was told i got the wrong machine..... that any Dymo other than the XL was a waste of money. Was feeling sad, so its good to know the smaller model is useful.

Are there any other brands, (circle or oval labels) I can buy that will work with the Dymo?
And which Dymo would work and be best for this?!
I have 4xl which labels are best for barcode with the price on the item on the label
For ebay, macari, esty, is there anything that the 450 wouldent be able to do that i would need it to do? Any info would be much appricated
It won't be able to print FedEx or international labels. Only domestic usps.
Need 4x6 for Etsy USPostal
Hello, for the 400 series, can I also use a 2 x 4 shipping label for USPS?
Yes some people I have heard print in the 2x4.
Thanks for the great information. Really cleared up questions for me about the Dymo printers.
You are welcome 😊
What if I don’t have a computer but for my business I use Shopify can I connect my phone to it so it can print out shipper labels for my packages ? Which one would I need to get ?
As far as i can tell none of them are bluetooth so you would need a computer pretty sure. It looks like there are cheaper different brand label makers that have bluetooth
I think "brother label printer" a option for bluetooth wireless
Love CHEECENT CR202 print server, it change DYMO 450 /550 to be a WiFi printer, our office comptuers can share it now.
What’s good thermal printer for eBay usps 4x7
can you use generic 4x6 labels with the 4xl dymo's ??
You CAN print the 4x6 labels on the 450 using 4 inch long labels and setting your print to SHRINK TO FIT. Are they standard 4x6? No. But they are still completly readable and scannable by the USPS.
Never tried that before! Might have to experiment 🙌🙌 appreciate the Intel.
Will the post offices still accept and ship with the smaller labels?
I’m thinking about getting the 450 turbo for Etsy
Omgrueffin1234 yes... that’s what I use and just shipped 20 packages with no issues.
Cool Ridge Creations ok thank you !!
When I do shrink to fit it does not work. I have to take a screenshot and save as a photo and copy into DYMO. Such a hassle. Can you give a detailed step by step so I can print on the 4x6?
so i ship shoes on goat and stock x which run through ups and you only ship to california and arizona with the dymo label writer 450 suffice?
Great Video!
Can I use smaller labels in the 4XL?
Or, can I assume, to be able to use smaller labels in any 4x6 label printer?
Hi looking at doing sales for eBay and using sendle which printer to you suggest

What about the DYMO wireless? How does that one compare to the other options you provided?
Im not a fan of the wireless dymo.
@@thecollegepicker I ended up going with the rollo printer 😊
Out of all the thermal label printers you have used or reviewed, which 2 would you recommend? This way it helps me narrow down my choice.
It would depend on what you want to print and what kind of system.
@@thecollegepicker Something for e bay, possibly Amazon but compatible with Windows 10
I try to printe with Chromebook..can enable the NPAPI
Thank you, very helpful video.
Just a quick question, can the Dymo 450's print different size labels?
You are welcome. Yes any size up to the max 2.4"
You can always click 4x6 in print options. Then fit to page and it will print usable shipping labels to the 2 ⁵/¹⁶x 4
That is another way to do it as well 😅👍
Is this compatible wit shopify
Which thermal printer do you recommend? I want it to be wireless and for it to be able to use any labels.
For that purpose I would recoment the brother ql1110nwb I have a few videos about that one on my channel

Oh no! thats a very common mistake, glad you got it all sorted!
Same 🤦🏽♀️
Omg I’m so happy I came across this comment I was abt to go grab the 450 for shipping labels omg this saved me
2:01 they are the same printer, except the Turbo versions have turbochargers!
So they won't work with any regular laptop?
I'm not sure I understand the question? These are compatible with laptops.
