A label printer driver plugin for InvenTree, which provides support for Dymo Label Writer® printers.

Compatibility

The following printers are already supported by the driver:

  • DYMO Label Writer 450
  • DYMO Label Writer 450 Duo (Tape is not supported currently)
  • DYMO Label Writer 450 Turbo
  • DYMO Label Writer 450 Twin Turbo

Requirements

Currently only printing over network is supported, so an RAW network socket server needs to be connected to the printer. A raspberry pi zero w is just enough for that job.

The easiest way to set this up, is using cups and configure a RAW printer device in combination with xinetd like described in this blog post.

Installation

Important

This plugin is only compatible with InvenTree>=0.14 because this uses the new label printer driver interface introduced with inventree/InvenTree#4824.

Goto "Admin Center > Plugins > Install Plugin" and enter inventree-dymo-plugin as package name.

Then goto "Admin Center > Machines" and create a new machine using this driver.

Technical working

This driver implements the RAW Dymo LabelWriter® 450 Series commands like described in the technical reference manual to send the label data to the printer.
