Using a LabelWriter Print Server

DYMO offers a LabelWriter Print Server to easily share your LabelWriter printer on a
network. Visit the DYMO Web site to learn more about the DYMO LabelWriter Print
Server.

Using a Third-Party Print Server

You can print over a network to a DYMO label printer connected to a wired or wireless
USB print server.

A DYMO label printer works the same as any other printer connected to a print server and
requires no special configuration. The steps for installing and printing with print servers
vary by print server type and manufacturer. See the documentation provided with your print
server for detailed installation and printing instructions.

DYMO label printers support printing from Windows XP (Service Pack 2), Windows Vista,
Windows 7, and Mac OS v10.4 or later.

The following are notes and tips for the print server installation:

n

Make sure that your print server supports the type of operating system installed on your
computer (Windows or Mac OS).

n

Most print servers only support the LabelWriter Duo Label printer. However, the
DYMO LabelWriter Print Server does support both the LabelWriter Duo Label and
Tape printers.

n

DYMO label printers with older firmware versions do not support print servers. See
Firmware Versions That Support Print Servers.

In general, during print server installation, if you are prompted for the printer or printer
driver, select the option for installing a printer driver from a disk and insert the CD that
came with your label printer into the CD-ROM/DVD drive on your computer. If the
installer does not automatically locate the printer drivers, navigate to the printer drivers on
the CD. If prompted to select your printer, select the printer that is physically connected to
the print server.

To connect your label printer to a print server

1. Connect one end of a USB cable to the USB connector on your label printer and the

other end to the USB connector on the print server.

2. Connect the print server to your network.

3. Connect power to the label printer and print server.
