DYMO LabelWriter 450 Specification Details
The low-cost, high-performance DYMO LabelWriter 450 has a 57 mm thermal print head with 672 individually addressable dots forming individual raster data lines at 300 dots per inch. The printer also uses specially treated heat-activated sticker paper. The thermal print head “prints” the lines of text directly on the paper, so there’s no need for ink or toner.
The printer doesn’t have built-in fonts; all customization for the text and style is done on the computer. DYMO’s printer drivers are crucial for converting the data – the text or image you want to put on the label – into commands that the thermal label printer can understand. As such, it’s crucial to download the latest and correct DYMO LabelWriter 450 drivers required for this function.
All printers in the LabelWriter 450 series can be connected to a laptop or computer using a USB 2.0 cable.
