Print using SDK over network without having the printer installed locally #87

The printer I am using is a Dymo LabelWriter Wireless

Maybe I am missing something, but the Dymo printer must be installed to the local machine or this SDK does not work. I tried installing Dymo connect on a remote machine, the printer was installed on this remote machine. When I try and access the status using https://ip_address_of_remote_machine:41951/DYMO/DLS/Printing/StatusConnected I get access refused. This occurs whether the remote machine is windows or mac, firewall disabled on both. Which tells me Dymo connect does not appear to allow remote connections (why?). There also does not appear to be a way to resolve.

The other related issue I have is there does not appear to be any way to add this printer via network without using Bonjour. Due to network segregation the printer is on a different subnet, therefore Bonjour will not work. Nothing I have tried has allowed me to add this printer to a Mac without using Bonjour (again why?)

Apologies if these issues do not belong here, but this is where Dymo support sent me (specifically Blazej @ DYMO Consumer Service).

I appreciate any enlightened or assistance.
