DYMO® LAUNCHES NEW PC/MAC CONNECTED LABELWRITER PRODUCT LINE
First-Ever LabelMakers to Offer Laser Sharp Printing and Palm® Desktop
Software Integration
DYMO, the only company in the world to offer a one stop shopping solution to
everyones labeling and identification needs, today introduced a new range
of PC and MAC connected label printers - LabelWriter® 300, LabelWriter®
330 and LabelWriter® 330 Turbo. Printing at twice the resolution and up to
twice the speed of any comparable label printer on the market, users can
print one-off or hundreds of labels directly from the toolbars of many
popular software programs such as Microsoft Outlook® and Word, ACT!®,
GoldMine® and the Palm® Desktop software or from DYMOs own included
software.
DYMOs new LabelWriter printers offer a range of new and improved technical
features to help maximize productivity in the workplace streamline one off
or multi contact mailings. As the only label printer that is currently
compatible with Windows 95/98/NT4/2000/Me and Macintoshs OS 8.6, 9 and 9.1
platforms, DYMOs LabelWriter is the first to offer 300 dpi printing which,
at twice the resolution of other label printers, creates sharper fonts,
clearer logos, crisper barcodes and even photos! With print speeds of up
to 32 labels a minute, LabelWriter is 50% faster than any other label
printer on the market.
The DYMO LabelWriter remains the only label printer able to print on to labels
up to 56mm (2.3), giving users the choice of more than 40 different label
sizes to meet their identification needs. Other features include
serial/USB connection for hassle-free installation, internal,
auto-switching, worldwide power supply and DYMOs unique shrink-to-fit text
capability all ensuring that whether its a name badge, video spine or
international shipping label thats required, perfect labels are produced
every time. The LabelWriter 300 and Turbo models are also fully supported
by Stamps.com and Inditia.com, a partnership enhanced by the fact that
DYMO manufactures the only printer approved for Internet postage.
DYMOs new LabelWriter range represents an exciting addition to DYMOs suite of
labeling and organization solutions," said Andrew Newmark, senior vice
president of DYMO. These sleek looking, space saving PC and MAC
peripherals are the latest example of DYMOs commitment to arm professional
administrators and resource strapped businesses with the most simple, time
efficient and cost effective means of organizing their day to day mailings
and workplace."
Standing just seven inches high, four inches wide and five inches deep, each
LabelWriter fits easily on any desktop. The product greatly reduces the
hassle and time spent printing labels from shared general-purpose
printers, a scenario commonly experienced by offices large or small.
Additionally, LabelWriter's advanced direct thermal print technology
eliminates the need to replace ribbons, toner or ink cartridges, in turn
reducing costs related to those supplies. Each LabelWriter is packaged
with DYMO's proprietary software incorporating a powerful built-in
database that not only integrates seamlessly with most popular database
programs but also offers unique capabilities such as specification of data
fields for printing and saving labels for instant recall. The LabelWriter
software also includes more than 40 pre-designed label templates and an
option for users to design their own. A free Software Developer Kit (SDK)
is also included, enabling programmers to quickly add label printing
features to any OLE or DDE enabled application.
One-at-a-time label printing is a fundamental need for almost everyone in the
workplace, yet it still remains one of the most difficult tasks for
Windows or Macintosh users to do, continued Mr. Newmark. Whether one or
hundreds of labels are required, DYMOs new LabelWriter solves this problem
in the fastest, cleanest and most convenient way available with the simple
click of a mouse."
The DYMO LabelWriter printers are a combination of metallic silver and one of
three different base colors according to model black for the 300, blue for
the 330, and red for the 330 Turbo. DYMO LabelWriter printers each come
with a one year warranty and are currently available through major
retailers such as Boise Cascade, CDW, Corporate Express, Frys, Gateway,
Global Computer, Micro Center, MicroWarehouse, Office Depot, PC
Connection, Staples, Quill and Viking. DYMO LabelWriter printers and other
products can also be purchased online at www.dymo.com.
