Chapter 3

Adding a Printer

In order to print to the LabelWriter printer that is connected to the print server, you must first add
the printer to your computer. You can add the printer to any or all of the computers connected to
your network.

You must have the LabelWriter printer drivers installed on your local computer to add a printer. The
printer drivers are included in the DYMO Label Software installation.

Note

Because the LabelWriter Duo printer is actually two printers in one, you need to add both

the label printer and the tape printer to your computer. These two printers show up separately in the
printer list.

This chapter describes how to add a printer in Windows XP, Windows Vista, Mac, and Linux.

Adding a Printer in Windows XP
