[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this labelwriter 5XL This machine prints very high-quality labels, it prints out fast, and then you just tear them off of the machine. They are extremely easy to peel off of the backing and the adhesive is very nice. It is amazing. Simple easy to set up and use, labels are clear, read the specs, it can do many things and it is very intuitive, fast, and can swap label rolls from one format to another in seconds.You can print precise label quantities with ease. Set up was a breeze- you first need to download the software from the quick start guide, you then connect the power to your label writer, then plug it into your computer to get started. From there, the software will walk you through everything you need to know. Highly recommend

I've had my printer for a year now. It's great, when it's not wasting labels which is 70% of the time. I only use DYMO brand labels and almost exclusively the large size. They are loaded to left and coming straight through the feed. Still, I have a trashcan full of wasted labels and only 3 that printed correctly.

I've had so many problems with this machine. First, it would just spit out blank labels in between printing, would get jammed and sometimes doesn't even print! Now, I have this problem where the USB cable is not being recognized and after updating my drivers and replacing it with a new cable, it is still not working. Had this machine for almost a year. Do not waste your money!!!

The printer ceased to work properly less than one week post purchase. Ranging from a constantly blinking blue indicator light to "ghost" printing (and ruining) multiple reams of labels, I am beyond frustrated. DO NOT RELY UPON THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THIS PRINTER FOR AN EFFICIENT WORKFLOW. Lastly, the outdated software obliterates any goals of achieving a seamlessly integrated packaging process.

This label printer has been malfunctioning since the day I purchased it. It is extremely inconsistent - it will work a couple times and then stop completely or will ghost print tons of labels. It also prints partial labels at times rendering them completely useless. I have wasted countless labels with this printer due to these issues and have only used the correct size Dymo brand labels and fed them through the printer as directed. I have purchased many other Dymo brand printers in the past and am extremely disappointed in this product.

At first this printer was working well, with occasional minor issues. In the past 1-2 years though, every single time I change the roll of labels they will not line up correctly and many labels are wasted in the tedious process of getting things right (at the moment I cannot get anything to print completely on the label at all). Things are cut off on one side and/or the top or bottom, the machine just won't cooperate despite turning it off/on, manually realigning everything, etc. Very frustrating and time consuming, and I would definitely go with another brand from now on. This was an expensive printer and I expected a lot more just 2-3 years from the time of purchase.

As someone who is rather tech savvy I wasn't too worried when my Dymo 4XL started having issues right out of the gate but after years of using this product I can honestly say it is the worst, most frustrating, time wasting, bad label spewing piece of hardware I have ever had the displeasure of owning. Half the time it works ok, the other half of the time it: - Spews countless blank labels (YES EVEN THE DYMO BRAND) - Gets jammed up in the most ridiculous ways requiring complete disassembly and cleaning - Shows "printer is offline" when it absolutely is not (and no its not some installation issue or problem with my USB cable, hub etc) - Prints crooked labels - Gets stuck half way through printing a label and the list goes on... If I had a dollar for every minute of time and frustration I have spent with this absolute joke I would be on a tropical island drinking Pina Coladas right now.

I bought this product about 4 months ago and it has been arguably the worst experience I have ever had with any piece of technology. It constantly malfunctions and doesnt perform as needed. I often times just try printing a single label and the machine will shoot out 5.5 extra labels, for no reason. I have followed every recommendation by the company including rebooting, redownloading the drivers and purchasing the branded labels. Also, I have confirmed that the settings on my computer are accurate. AVOID THIS PRODUCT AT ALL COSTS.

Is there a negative star I can give?!? I've been through 3 of these. The first time it just quit working, wouldn't turn on. I chalked it up to the fact we've had it for a few years and we use it a lot, just bought a new one. Next one started registering a paper jam when there was no jam. Called the help line, they insisted there Must be a jam although there wasn't. They were ZERO help. Out of frustration I threw the printer away and got a different one. Now this one, less than 1 year old and it's doing the same, registering a paper jam. I'm Done. Come pick up your printer.
