About the LabelWriter 4XL Printer

Congratulations on purchasing a DYMO LabelWriter label printer. Your LabelWriter printer will

give you years of reliable label printing. We encourage you to take a few minutes to review how to

use and care for your printer.

Using the standard Windows and Mac OS printer drivers, you can print shipping labels with

Endicia software, print from standard Windows or Mac applications, or even integrate label

printing into your own custom applications. We have no doubt that the LabelWriter 4XL printer

will make your job easier and more efficient.

Printer Features

Your LabelWriter printer is a direct thermal printer and does not use ink or toner. Instead, the

printer uses heat from a thermal print head to print on specially treated, heat-sensitive labels. Labels

are the only supplies you will ever need to buy.

Become familiar with the major components of the printer.

The form-feed button on the front of the printer advances a single label. The label eject button is

used to remove labels from the printer when changing rolls.

The status light visually shows the current state of the printer:

•Solid blue - power is on and the printer is ready.

•Flashing blue - labels are not loaded properly or the label roll is empty.

System Requirements

The LabelWriter printer requires a USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 connection and one of the following:

•Windows®XP 32-bit

•Windows Vista®32 or 64-bit

•Mac OS®v10.3.9/10.4.11/10.5.2 or later

About Labels

DYMO LabelWriter printers use advanced thermal printing technology to print on specially

treated, heat-sensitive labels. This means you will never have to replace toner, ink cartridges, or a

ribbon to print labels.

Note DYMO’s warranty does not cover malfunction or damage that may be caused by the use of

labels other than DYMO-branded labels. Because DYMO LabelWriter printers use thermal printing

technology, you must use specially designed and manufactured labels. The thermal coatings used

on labels other than DYMO-branded labels may not be compatible, and may provide unsatisfactory

printing or cause the printer to malfunction.

How long your labels will last depends on how the labels are used. Thermal paper labels, such as

those printed by the LabelWriter printer, are susceptible to fading in two ways:

•Exposure to direct sunlight, to fluorescent light for an extended period of time, or to extreme

heat will cause fading.

•Contact with plasticizers (for example, labels placed on plastic ring binders) will cause fading.

In the original packaging, the shelf life for LabelWriter labels is 18 months. When labels are used

for short-term applications (envelopes, packages, and so on), fading is not a problem. When labels

are used to label files in a file cabinet, fading is very gradual over many years. Labels applied to the

edge of a notebook that is then placed on a shelf in the sun will show signs of fading within a few

months.

To prolong label life when labels are not in use, store the labels in a cool, dry place and in the black

bag in which they were originally packaged.

About Labels

Loading Labels

Each label roll comes in a black plastic bag. Make sure to store the label roll in this bag when the

labels are not being used.

Important!

In order for the labels to feed properly during printing, pay attention to the following when loading

labels on the spool and into the printer:

•The label spool guide must be pushed flush against the label roll, with no gap. See Figure 2.

•The labels must be loaded with the left edge of the label inserted against the left edge of the

label feed slot. See Figure 4.

To load a label roll

1With the printer plugged in, press the form-feed button to

eject the labels that protected the printer during shipment.

2Open the top cover and remove any packing material

inside the label compartment.

3Remove the label spool from inside the cover and separate

the spool guide from the spindle.

4Hold the spool spindle in your left hand and place the label roll

on the spindle so that the labels feed from underneath and the

left edge of the label roll is firmly against the side of the spool.

See Figure 1.

5Slide the spool guide onto the right side of the spool and press

the guide tightly against the side of the label roll, leaving no

gap between the roll and the spool. See Figure 2.

Note To ensure proper feeding of labels during printing, the

label roll must fit snugly against both sides of the label spool,

with no gaps.

6Insert the label spool into the slot in the printer cover with the

labels extending from underneath the roll. See Figure 3.

7Align the left edge of the label with the left edge of the label

feed slot and insert the label into the slot. See Figure 4.

The printer feeds the labels, stopping at the beginning of

the first label. If the printer does not feed the labels, make

sure the first label is fully inserted and then press the

form-feed button.

Note Regardless of the label width, the left edge of the

label must be aligned with the left edge of the label feed

slot for the labels to feed properly.

8Carefully lower the top cover.

Ordering Labels

DYMO offers a full range of labels for the LabelWriter printers, including labels suited for

addressing envelopes, shipping packages, naming file folders, labeling all sorts of media, printing

name badges, and much more. A complete listing can be found in the label catalog that was

supplied with this printer and at the DYMO Web site: www.dymo.com.

Caution DYMO’s warranty does not cover malfunction or damage that may be caused by the use

of labels other than DYMO-branded labels. Because DYMO LabelWriter printers use thermal

printing technology, you must use specially designed and manufactured labels. The thermal

coatings used on labels other than DYMO-branded labels may not be compatible and may provide

unsatisfactory printing or cause the printer to malfunction.

Custom Labels

DYMO also offers several ways to customize your LabelWriter labels. You can order labels

preprinted with text or graphics in any color. For example, shipping labels can be preprinted with

your return address and logo to match your corporate letterhead. Labels are also available in custom

sizes and with special adhesives.

You can obtain details on our custom label program by calling the Custom Label Sales department

at 1-800-426-7827 or send an email to cust[email protected].
