![]() The printers are designed to be compatible with specific online postage sites, such as and, so that you can purchase, print, and manage your postage right from your computer. ![]() There are many different models of Dymo printers available and they can easily be used to print out a variety of postage options including USPS, FedEx, and UPS. ![]() I have been using these and, earlier, other Dymo printers for many, many years, since the first models originally on Windows machines and more recently (8 years) on Mac hardware.Yes, you can print postage on a Dymo. I keep all of my machines up to date.įirst item of interest: -> I have been using both printers successfully with 10.9.4. I don't know why it works for me but not others. Second Item: -> I upgraded the iMac to 10.9.5 and it insists the printer is not connected. I did a major housecleaning of all Dymo related material and reinstalled only to get the same result. I connected the printer to a MacBook Pro running 10.9.5 and which never had an Dymo software installed. OS X seems to think there is no problem, i.e., the printer is listed as an active USB device and as an installed printer at idle.Ģ.Įverything is OK until you actually try to print and the error message insists the printer is not connected.ġ. It ended "successfully", and a check of the printers in System Preferences shows the Dymo printer as installed and idle.Įvery installation of the Dymo 8.5.1 SW proceeded VERY slowly toward the end of the installation, while running scripts, just before it says to connect the printer. When I try to print a label, the ONLY thing out of whack is that the popup printing box says the printer is not connected.Ĭomment: It's one thing to say, "10.9.5 is a new version and we haven't caught up yet," although there has been plenty of time and information available to be on time for the release, but it's another thing to abandon a product like this which, frankly, ain't all that complicated. Last, the communication channels regarding tech support seem totally muddled with no centralization and therefore multiple answers, some or all of which seem erroneous. These printers have been great when they worked, albeit expensive for the materials. But the real expense has been the time necessary to make them work at all, particularly in the update/upgrade cycle.Īt the (almost certain) risk of getting "edited by Host", I'm compelled to complain here about BOTH Apple's and Dymo's apparent attitude toward this printer problem.ĭymo's website offers no forum to find assistance and Dymo's "support" is unreliable (if it responds, at all). There is CLEARLY a problem with compatibility between the Dymo software version 8.5.1 and recent Mac o/s updates. Dymo has acknowledged it - going so far as to offer "discounts" to purchase new printers to replace the (still completely serviceable) printers they've quietly decided not to support.Īpple, by heavy-handed editing of posts to this forum, is complicit in Dymo's malfeasance. We come here to find help for real problems. It is extremely useful (and often comforting) to learn that others are having the same experience often the Community, together, is successful in finding solutions to the problem(s).
