The technical manual describing these printers is: Here is for a standard address label (landscape: 3.50" x 1.10") Here is for a diskette label (landscape: 2.75" x 2.13")

DYMO LABELWRITER NOT PRINTING TEXT DRIVER

My analysis is that these metrics reported by the driver ARE CORRECT. Here is some potentially useful information from the Windows DEVMODE structure and GetDeviceCaps API. Barcodes that were usable in old versions of Writer did not work for scanning in newer versions due to incorrect rendering of the barcode font ("Free 3 of 9" font 18 pt). Barcodes that are too small to scan when printed in 300x300 may be usable in 300圆00 IF there is correct printing. The 300圆00 mode can be especially useful for barcode fonts (notice that the Best mode is called "Barcodes and Graphics" in the printer Advanced Properties). The kerning was not acceptable to the user, and there were also problems with barcode printing. The actual end user case that prompted this involves an automated merge and print from Calc into Writer. The regressions to (1) are likely the most problematic in practice because they affect ordinary text on the page. The PNG file produced by the above procedure prior to the image manipulation steps is also attached. This is a landscape printing, so you can rotate it CCW 90 degrees for better viewing.Ī scan of the actual hardcopy is attached. (The dots parallel with the print head are physically twice the size because that axis is half resolution.)Ĩ.b. You can resize the image by the scale factors 200% x 100% to adjust for the rectangular dots to get an image representative of the printed output at this resolution. Convert the printer output to a dot-for-dot PNG:Ĩ.a. For example, dymo.prn in the same directory as dymo2png.exe. You will be prompted to enter a filename to receive the output. Note that preview will be have many issues (regardless of the version), but the printed output will actually be much better than the preview indicates.Ħ.j. Select printer: DYMO LabelWriter 450 Twin TurboĦ.h. Open the attached Writer document: DymoLabel30258Diskette.odtĦ.a. Compile the attached C# program dymo2png.cs into dymo2png.exe using the compiler that comes with Windows.Ĭ:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v9\csc.exe /nologo /d:DEBUG,TRACE /debug+ /optimize- dymo2png.csĥ. That being said, this probably reproduces on any of the 450 models (and maybe others). The actual printer that I have used and have also tested the C# program with is "DYMO LabelWriter 450 Twin Turbo".

DYMO LABELWRITER NOT PRINTING TEXT DOWNLOAD

Download printer driver package "Dymo Connect for Desktop v1.0.1" from ( ).ģ. In this orientation, the DPI is 600 dpi on the long axis and 300 dpi on the short axis.īut note that the affected areas are not corrected by printing in portrait orientation actually the spacing is worse in portrait.ġ. This test will use landscape orientation as that is most commonly used for labels. (There is also a file attached for "30252 Address" (landscape 3.50" x 1.10"), in case you actually have the printer and that common label size, though only one of the three test cases fits.) The form for this test is "30258 Diskette" (landscape: 2.75" x 2.13"). These devices support two print qualities: 300x300 dpi (Normal - "Text Only") and 300圆00 dpi (Best - "Barcodes and Graphics") (The print head contains 300 elements per inch it varies the line feed to adjust the dpi perpendicular to the print head.) A rendering program is attached if you want to test *without* having the printer (using the driver to output the printer control codes to the FILE: port).

DYMO LABELWRITER NOT PRINTING TEXT SERIES

The Dymo LabelWriter 450 series is a popular line of thermal label printers. This may have to do with the fact that the dots in this resolution are rectangular (dpiX != dpiY). Of the versions available in the "old" download archive, I have narrowed down the regression to between 5.3.0.0.alpha1 (good) and 5.3.0.0.beta1 (bad). The Dymo LabelWriter printer has character spacing issues when set to its "best" printing quality.
