Rated 4 out of 5 by Bonnie68 from Great label printer shame about the software Very good & versatile, unfortunately the D1 tape stopped being recognised on PC, tried uninstalling software, another USB port, don’t know what’s wrong with it & because the connect software is now so horrible to use I’m looking to replace with a handheld label printer. I’ve seen on another post the OG software is still available, unfortunately i have 2 Dymo printers, 450 Duo & 4XL, the OG software is no longer compatible with the 4XL. Whoever came up with the connect interface needs a good talking to, not user friendly & a nightmare to navigate. Someone decided to try & fix something that wasn’t broken, bring back the OG software that worked for all

Rated 1 out of 5 by Sueb from Windows 11 is not compatible with duo 450 printer Duo 450 which I have had for a few years has a problem that sometimes it won't print. Rebooting the PC results in the labels that wouldn't print churning out in one go. I remember this now so if it won't print at the first go I reboot so as to not get loads of labels I won't use. Now I have upgraded to Windows 11 it won't print on the tape labels at all and the sticky paper labels are sometimes printed or sometimes not. I've upgraded the software and printer drivers. No change. I've contacted Dymo who say it is Windows. Contacted Microsoft who say to install the latest printer driver as it will be an issue with Dymo. So now have a duo 450 printer and loads of labels I can't use. And I feel like a table tennis ball being batted between Dymo and Microsoft who are too busy blaming each other and therefore not sorting issue. So now I bought some labels off ebay and use Avery to print lovely labels and use an old hand held printer to print tape labels. Is this good???

Rated 1 out of 5 by Willy C from Printer great. Software drivers seem very buggy For some reason my DUO almost, all ways works with the label side, but I have to remove the printer and reset my computer for it to recognize the tape portion. In order to get the tape back, I unplug the USB, remove the printer in settings, then reset the computer. After boot finishes, I plug the USB in and then the Label V8 works with the tape but not the Connect software. Connect only shows the label printer. This is very frustrating as I don't want to go back to my Casio printers every time I want a tape print out.

Rated 4 out of 5 by KOS IT SERVICES from Windows11 Issues - any updates? Hi, was dancing with installing, configuring etc without any luck on Windows11. Unfortunately I can not use any other machine on Windows10 and looks like with the latest windows 10 updates it's also failed. From other reviews I understood it's like not your problem but Windows11 issue. But are you really not able to do anything about this?

Rated 1 out of 5 by Billwithunusableprinter from Unable install My DYMO LabelWriter Due has worked flawlessly for seemingly forever; maybe 10 years now. I got a new Windows 10 machine and am told to install Dymo Connect. I tried 3 separate times and the printer is not recognized. I just want my old drivers back. The machine itself gets 5 stars; the software 0 stars.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Sandro from Can't print anymore after a window update After a Windows 10 security update, all LabelWriter printers in my company are unusable. 45 days after the update, Dymo support has no solution! Programmed obsolescence ?

Rated 1 out of 5 by Bo 63 from use to be Great, Now with Windows 11 Not I have been using this Duo printer for years No Problems. Now with windows 11 only part of the unit works. The software does "NOT" work with windows 11, If you are going to use Windows 11 , I would not recommend this Product.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Alexis7921547 from Not compatible with Windows 11 Unfortunately this device is not compatible with Windows 11 and has been rendered useless since the release of Windows 11 in October. I have been unable to use this device, and not Dymo or Microsoft are doing anything to fix it.
