Note: For Windows users there should be no issues with simply selecting your Dymo printer as the Target Printer and printing the label. Mac users will be unable to print directly to their Dymo printers due to the fact that the Java applet does not provide support for this on Mac computers.

In order to print the label on your Mac using your Dymo printer you will need to follow the steps outlined below.

Mac Users

  1. Download the Cups PDF Printer for Mac OS X SW and install it.
  2. Select System Preferences. Then select Print & Fax.
