• https://qajavascriptsdktests.azurewebsites.net/JavaScript/dymo.connect.framework.js

Functions ⚙️

dymo.connect.framework includes functions from the previous dymo.label.framework

• Download DYMO.Label.Framework documentation

These are the main functions to get start

• dymo.connect.framework

  • Initialize

    dymo.label.framework.init() //Initialize DYMO Label Framework

    dymo.label.framework.checkEnvironment() // Validate if the environment meets the requirements

  • Load label

    dymo.label.framework.openLabelFile(fileName) //Load label from file name and return label instance

  • Validate label

    dymo.label.framework.openLabelXml(labelXml) //Load label from XML content and return label instance

    • Validate label instance (introduced in dymo.connect.framework)

      label.isValidLabel() //Validate if the current content is a valid label based on the current service installed
      label.isDCDLabel() //Validate if the current content is a valid DYMO Connect label based on DYMO Connect service
      label.isDLSLabel() //Validate if the current content is a valid DYMO Label Software label based on DYMO Label Software service

    • Get printers

      dymo.label.framework.getPrinters() //Get list of DYMO printers installed

  • Print

    dymo.label.framework.printLabel(printerName, printParamsXml, labelXml, labelSetXml) //Print label

    • Get preview

      dymo.label.framework.renderLabel(labelXml, renderParamsXml, printerName) //Get label preview image of the label

      Important notes

Opening a label file previously created from DYMO Label Software, with DYMO Connect Software installed, it will convert the structure of DLS label into DYMO Connect label. Therefore, isDCDLabel function will return always true after label file has been open, when DYMO Connect is running.

setTextMarkup function is not supported for DYMO Connect labels.
