The Dymo Labelwriter 4XL is a label printer designed to be easy to use and cost effective. The 4XL part of its name refers to the printer’s ability to print labels of up to four inches wide (4.16 inches or 105.77 millimeters to be precise). With its compact design, it can be mistaken as something limited to quick printing tasks that only produces outputs in the lower resolution range. However, it is more than its looks. It is capable of delivering great printouts at 300 dpi quality.
The 4XL label printer from Dymo uses direct thermal technology to produce high quality labels. As such, it only requires the appropriate thermochromic paper. It does not need toners, inks and other printing supplies associated with other label printers. This means that it is less difficult to maintain, more efficient, and less expensive to operate. Some may have doubts about the thermal printing’s quality of output—it is not something to worry about. The printer promises printouts with a resolution of 11.8 dots per millimetre or 300 dots per inch. This is the average of what typical quality desktop printers produce. Nevertheless, users should not expect colors since the printer can only deliver monochrome printouts, owing to its use of thermal printing technology.
The Dymo labelwriter 4xl printer is designed to be used in various applications. It can be deployed for use in manufacturing and retail operations, office operations, shipping, inventory control, health care settings, and the transportation and logistics industries. The printer’s speedy printing performance makes it a good choice in fast paced settings. It delivers an average print speed of 3.2 inches per second.
When it comes to connectivity, the 4XL supports a multitude. It has a USB port. Its network support includes Windows Sharing and Optional Network Print Server. It also supports autoranging external power supply using a C7 type connector. Input power is at the 100 to 240 V AC range at 50-60 Hz. The standard Dymo LabelWriter 4XL package comes with the 4XL unit, a USB cable, printing drivers, cleaning card, power cable and adapter, user guide, and a starter roll of 40×60 shipping labels.
