Use your DYMO Printer on Ubuntu

20/7/2014

Comments

 
The most difficult to make work when you go from windows to a linux distribution is that some programs or hardware you have is not working anymore. One of those is DYMO. 

I have DYMO labelwriter 450 and it was very difficult to find how can i print labels with my ubuntu system. And it was urgent because some times i print over 200 labels per month.

So i give you as simple as can be how to install it and use your DYMO printer on ubuntu. I found the instructions on http://www.smartfruit.com/?p=188.

Here is the step you need to use the Dymo on it.

Step 1: Download Dymo Linux SDK.

You’d get something like “dymo-cups-drivers-1.4.0.tar.gz“.

Step 2: Install libcups2-dev libcupsimage2-dev

sudo apt-get install libcups2-dev libcupsimage2-dev gcc g++

Step 3: Install the SDK

mkdir dymo cd dymo tar xzf dymo-cups-drivers-1.4.0.tar.gz cd ./dymo-cups-drivers-1.4.0.5/ ./configure make sudo make install

Now the driver is installed.

Step 4: Set up the CUPS
Now, go to the CUPS admin page. Don’t forget to connect the Dymo to your machine.

Here are the screen shots of how I set it up.

Step 5: Install gLabels

gLabels is a GNOME application for printing labels. Thanks for whoever developed this. It is well designed and made. You can also find it in ubuntu software center.

Step 6: Set up the template

I had to try a few times to get the template working. Ones showing here is not 100%, but it is working OK.
Step 7: Create a label.
Now, in gLabels, you create a label. New document and pick the template you created.

And you are ready to print!

p.s. I hope i helped a lot!
