Review: Brilliant....... A Very Useful Bit of Kit! - I should have bought this years ago........... I already own the Dymo Label Writer 450 which prints paper labels, but I needed one that prints plastic waterproof labels. After a lot of research I opted for this Dymo LabelManager 280 for the following reasons. It has a QWERTY Keyboard (rather than an ABCDE Keyboard) and includes a dedicated Numbers row. It has a Rechargeable Battery plus a Dedicated Charger. It comes with two rolls of D1 Labels. It comes with a Quality, Dedicated, Zipped Carry Case. It has a large LCD Screen. As well as the Keyboard, it also has buttons on the front fascia for on-screen navigation, settings and printing. Notable Points...... The D1 Label widths that can be used with the 280 are 6mm, 9mm and 12mm. Dymo do wider D1 Labels but they will NOT fit the 280. Before inserting the D1 Label Cartridges, it is good practice to take up any slack in the Label's roll by winding the cartridge mechanism in the direction of the arrow a few times, otherwise the label will not feed correctly. Peeling the backing from the printed labels can be a bit fiddly, especially if you have large fingers. The backing strip is split in two and you need to fold the label back on itself longways to split the backing strip and then peel away the two strips. I have found it easier to use a pair of tweezers to grab the backing, rather than risk smudging with my chunky fingers. The basic features of the 280 are simple enough to perform without reading the instructions, however some tasks will involve reading the instructions. The keyboard is a pleasure to use and the data entered is very clear on the LCD Screen, however some of the symbols shown at the top of the screen are tiny and you have to look closely. Overall I am Very Impressed and Highly Recommend the DYMO 280.
Review: UK Charger Included! - WOW, Just WOW! I had a Dymo handheld years ago but never got on with it and it failed to power on after years of no use. I also had the Dymo PNP USB label printer but it was playing up after years of no use so I foolishly bought 2x more on ebay as a backup. All three has now failed and will not show up in the app as connected despite the batteries being charged. So I started looking for another Dymo as I was pleased with the print quality from the PNP printers. This one came up which was more than I wanted to pay but I took the chance. It's just arrived and I've managed to print a few basic labels that i wanted. I used the battery from one of my PNP printers which works fine. I inserted a colour D1 tape I already had and printed using the Basic font size 16 in bold. Very nice. It's intuitive to use as well. It's portable. Lightweight. Nice quality and nice to have case. It DOES come with a UK charger, USB lead and a two pin charger along with a 9mm black on clear tape x7m and a 12mm black on white tape x7m. It would have been nice if the display was backlit. I don't know what your printing needs are but I just want to label things like plugs etc and for that this is perfect.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i use it to prepare labels for postage?I mena can i print a whole address in a single label?**
A: You probably can but it would be a long label as it's a narrow strip. I think dymo do another labeler for a pc which might be better suited for that application that you require.

**Q: Once the Dymo device downloads the fonts & symbols etc. from the PC, do they stay on the Dymo device without having to reconnect it to the PC?**
A: Not on the one I have, when you use the PC software it looks like the laptop uses the Dymo device as a "printer" so can made labels with any font on the laptop, the Dymo device only has the fonts it came with once disconnected from the laptop.  Having said that I find the software very easy to use and make most of my labels with it.

**Q: With the 19mm labels what’s the biggest font, will the font fill the whole label? Photos only show small text**
A: With 19mm labels max font size is 40pt. This is equivalent to 9mm. Therefore there is a 5mm margin at both the top and bottom of the text.

**Q: How many different fonts does it have? Acording to the comparison table in the web page, it has 7, product page says 6, and manual says only three.**
A: On the actual machine it has 3 fonts- "fun", "basic" and "Serif".  There may be more if you use the computer based package, I haven't got round to using it yet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little labeller - especially with its Mac connectivity. Shame it's not higher resolution.
*by J***G on 27 August 2018*

Fast and easy to use with great results (once you've had a play to find the fonts and sizes that print best). It looks like it has a touch screen, but it's just a soft plastic sheet hiding real buttons which is a bit of a swizz. I'd be happier with normal buttons like its cheaper sibling. The screen doesn't light up either (as Dymo product images would have you believe) so it's quite hard reading the smaller information - type size especially... But it's its connectivity to a computer that sets it apart. The desktop software works well - but it's more Word than InDesign so the controls are pretty basic. You can't access proper weights and italics from font families, it just lists single regular weights and then allows you to choose a faux-italic or bold but this is probably ok given the unit's resolution shortcomings. Type is mostly jaggy and it can't really handle anything intricate. You can find sizes and fonts that work well with trial and error, but I'd rather have better resolution in the first place. I don't think anyone else does higher res either so it must be the 'acceptable standard' in the market place at this price point - at the moment. Over to you Dymo.
