Wi-Fi kept losing connection

I had to listen to other bad reviews, Wi-Fi dropped out and I couldn't connect it again, I ended up bringing it back for the USB connected one, I even tried tried to use the USB port on the device, but it still doesn't connect. Not worth the money.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • No performance

Well I was over an hour late with customer service

Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't, now it doesn't work at all, there won't be food labels. It's still under warranty but you have to call tech support first and they won't answer the phone and the chat just says they don't have people available. So not only did I not pay the price of the printer, I also didn't pay for the labels and postage, which I prepaid.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Good but not great

This is a decent product for 6 weeks

Purchased on 15th December. It behaves like it's connected to Wi-Fi, but I've never been able to get it to print wirelessly. Not once. I connected it to USB and it prints like this. Now 6 weeks later it doesn't work at all. I've restarted it, cycled it, unplugged it, reinstalled programs - all to no avail. I suddenly can't get it to work anymore. I can't get any help on the Dymo website. Very disappointing.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Only available in black

USB 3.0 problem stays with WPS wireless

For the wireless function, WPS must be connected to the router, which is problematic if you don't use WPS, otherwise you have to use a cable. Problematic issue with Dymo label printers and USB 3.0 issue. Dymo printers used to work with Windows 10, but now a USB issue is preventing Dymo printers from printing at all. Dymo needs to fix this problem or nobody will use their product. I had to switch to a Brother label printer.

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Modern

Decent hardware, terrible software

No mac support to update firmware, mac app not ready for latest macOS, spent at least an hour getting it working but I thought it was just a possible print postage if you buy some pointless subscription service. Can't get it to work properly with macOS for it to be recognized as a printer. Your mileage may vary, but just buying stamps may be easier than trying to get there. Too bad the hardware seems good apart from being plastic.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Some issues

Not compatible with Windows 10 over Wi-Fi

I bought the Dymo LabelWriter Wireless specifically for use over Wi-Fi. Just like other reviews said they had wifi connection issues, so did I. I'm a professional computer support technician and just spent 6 hours setting up this printer. It worked for me for a while and then it just stopped working. It worked for me again, and then it stopped working again. I bought it used thinking that others at Revain might not have the same technical experience as me and was just plain disappointed. No…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Bad experience

This is a special MINI Wi-Fi printer

I bought a used Revain DYMO wireless label printer and it said 'like new'. So I spent about 50% of its regular list price including S.Tax. DYMO did not include Wireless LabelWriter installation details in the Quick Start Guide that came with the package. Whatever information is available, it will not be enough for people unfamiliar with installing a wireless (Bonjour for Mac) printer in a computer. I had many problems before figuring out how to get the new DYMO wireless label printer to work…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some little things
