This Quick Start Guide gives instructions for connecting the printer, installing the software, and

loading the labels. For complete information about programming and using the LabelWriter

SE450 printer, refer to the LabelWriter SE450 Technical Reference Guide available on the

Developers Program page of the DYMO Web site (www.dymo.com).

The LabelWriter SE450 label printer is primarily intended for applications limited to sending simple

ASCII print data and Escape commands for printing from computers or devices using the serial or

USB connections. In addition, printer drivers are included for printing from a Mac, Windows, or

Linux system.

The software CD included with the printer includes the printer drivers for Windows, Mac, and Linux,

and the full DYMO Label v.8 software installer. However, when used primarily as an ASCII printer,

the drivers may not be required by your system.

LabelWriter Printer Features

Your LabelWriter printer is a direct thermal printer and does not use ink or toner. Instead, the printer

uses heat from a thermal print head to print on specially treated labels. Labels are the only supplies

you will ever need to buy.

The form-feed button on the front of the printer advances a single label.

The status light visually shows the current state of the printer:

•Solid blue - USB cable is connected and printer is ready to print.

•Solid green - Serial cable is connected and printer is ready to print.

•Dimmed blue or green - printer is in power saving mode.

•Flashing red - Labels are not loaded properly or the label roll is empty.

•Flashing green - Printer is in configuration mode. Refer to the Technical Reference Guide.

Loading Labels

Important!

In order for the labels to feed properly during printing, the labels must be loaded with the left edge of

the label inserted against the left edge of the label feed slot. See Figure 8.

To load a label roll

1Press the form-feed button to eject the labels that

protected the printer during shipment.

2Open the top cover and remove any packing material

inside the label compartment.

3Remove the label spool from inside the top cover and

pull the spool guide from the spindle.

4Hold the spool spindle in your left hand and place the

label roll on the spindle so that the labels feed from

underneath and the left edge of the label roll is firmly against the side of the spool. See

Figure 5.

5Slide the spool guide onto the right side of the spool and press the

guide tightly against the side of the label roll, leaving no gap

between the roll and the spool. See Figure 6.

NOTE To ensure proper feeding of labels during printing, the label roll

must fit snugly against both sides of the label spool, with no gaps.

6Insert the label spool into the slot in the printer cover with

the labels extending from underneath the roll. See

Figure 7.

7Align the left edge of the label with the left edge of the

label feed slot and insert the label into the slot.

The printer automatically feeds the label, stopping at the

beginning of the first label.

If the printer does not feed the labels, make sure the

first label is fully inserted and then press the form-feed

button on the front of the printer.

If the first label on the roll is not a full label, press the

form-feed button to eject the partial label.
