I have used DYMO for years. My complaint is that you are constantly fooling around with the software to make it work. One day it works and the next it doesn't. This time I can't get it to work no matter what I do. Unfortunately I will have to now change our 10 office units. It's costing me too much in staff time to trey to get this working again.

When did Dymo start making the LabelWriter? That's how long I've been using it. This is just one of those essential office tools that is so helpful. I use it to label binders, make shipping labels, address labels & check e zip code, name tags, folder labels in a medical office, storage boxes, project files & the list goes on. Handy at home as well. And now it prints postage. Woo Hoo! No more waiting in line at the post office, just click & add however much postage I need right now. Send most of my business mail electronically now, so was able to ditch the postage machine. Had a question, got an answer right away. Thanks Dymo!!!

Basically everyone on here is saying the same. Software sucks. I have to connect the printer AFTER installing the software. Sounds easy enough. Except that doesn't work. And if I connected it first, then what should I do? No instructions. Perhaps you are doomed forever and have to return the printer and buy one from another company. I tried uninstalling the software and drivers and restarting my computer (keep in mind I did follow the instruction to install the software first in the first pace!). Still, does not seem to detect my printer. Perhaps they think this will make people upgrade to their latest printer? Well I don't think they understand how it feel to have such a crappy product experience.

Our Company purchased two of the DYMO LabelWriter 450 Twin Turbos. We had to have our IT department authorize and install the software and after they installed it, I had issues with the user interface, it was not very user-friendly when adjusting or resizing text to fit within the label. I installed the software on an old personal computer and the software worked great! I also installed it on a Macbook and the interface is slightly different but, they both work flawlessly. I enjoy using the LabelWriter, only wish it had Wifi or Bluetooth connectivity so I could use it across the room but, I ended up purchasing a 20-foot cable and now, I can print labels from across the room. Would I recommend the product? Yes, but not for a large corporation setting due to Administrative limitations.

I have been using the Dymo LabelWriter 450 Twin Turbo for years with very little issue. Then a new computer for me and the installation of Dymo Connect. Who did you write this for? Someone slowly organizing their home? I run a small business. I had hundreds of addresses saved in my address books that don't work in this new system. Dymo Connect has yet to even see both of my spools on the Twin Turbo. It takes me so long to do labels that I'm thinking of going back to printer them on my laser printer. Please fix this. I miss the old system and my address books.

Like so many others here, I have been using LabelWriters for many years and love the printer itself. The software? Not so much. I would also like the old Dymo Label software. I do not like the new Connect version. Where can I download this older software without risking my computer to phishing download sites, please? The ratings at the bottom of this post is for the software and not the hardware.

Since 2000, I have owned and used LABELWRITER 450 TWIN TURBO DYMOs. I have one at work and two at home in 2 different locations. Because I have ADHD, these are a tremendous support. I use them as my memory and, believe me, I label everything, as well as using them for the usual boring tasks like postal labels and return address labels. I keep all my passwords in a separate file, as well as credit card info, etc. All of those storage boxes in the basement are labeled on 3 sides with a shipping label. You can't believe how much time it saves me to see what is in boxes stored in the garage and basement, as well as my many sewing and hobby supplies. Having said that, I have to agree with JJones review that the new CONNECT software truly SUCKS and wastes time. It is not as flexible as the simple, original "Label Software" that I strongly prefer. Call Label Software legacy or call it whatever you want, but delete the CONNECT software if you downloaded it. PRO-TIP: If you need or want to be a power user (i.e., you hardly have time to go to the bathroom at work), then buy extra spindles and load them with any label you expect to use. At home and at work, I keep extra spindles at the ready in my desk drawer for 30352 White address labels; Shipping Labels; 30347 small labels that I use for personal return address labels; 2-up file folder labels, and name badge labels to name a few. No, I don't work for DYMO. DYMO has to work for me. CONNECT software is DYMO's equivalent of NEW COKE. (PS, my ratings are based on the old Label Software.)

As I have read over 50 times, the Twin Turbo 450 is a great machine; BUT, the new connect software is horrible. I read that your software technicians was working on the Connect Software problems two years ago. Unfortunately, the software is still horrible. I never ever had a problem with DYMO until the new Connect software was released. I use, just as everyone else with problems who reviewed the product, the Version 8 software. How do I change the "Go to Stamps" icon in Version 8 so it goes to the new Endicia website instead of an old site which is an error. Another problem I have is the fact that whenever I reboot my computer, I lose the driver for the Twin Turbo. I have to disconnect it and install an old Single 450 Turbo which sets up the correct driver. I then have to disconnect the Single Turbo and reconnect the Twin Turbo. It is obvious that your company is not updating the Version 8 software; but then again, it also appears that no one is fixing all the numerous Connect Software problems. Thank you for your patience from a very frustrated DYMO Twin Turbo user who is very close to looking for different label hardware!

I have had both the 450 twin as well as the postage scale. I used it daily when i "first" got it without problems. Then software started getting changed ... then companies and so much disorganization as to make them worthless. The employees were never able to figure out and could actually go to the post office faster and cheaper than successfully getting something printed out. I could not recommend getting another Dymo product because of all the grief we have had with these.

doesn't work, won't print , installed software won;t print labels
