Hmm, I'll need to investigate further, as I don't have this particular printer...
Oops, forgot to mention that I'm using Linux, Fedora 32. Also, many thanks for all your work on this, CUPS, ESP Print Pro, and everything else!
@meosborne OK, so I found more information here: https://developers.dymo.com
The wireless and 5xx series printers use an updated command set. For now I am going to comment out the LabelWriter Wireless driver, but it looks like it should be fairly straight-forward to add it if you are available to test?
I would be happy to test.
I can test as well
I'm in the market for a Dymo LabelWrite 550 and was wondering if this issue is resolved/being worked upon currently?
@Gandalf-the-Blue I haven't started working on this driver yet so I can't say when it will be completed...
@michaelrsweet How does the development of the LW 550 driver look atm? I have a 550 sitting on my desk and can provide help with testing and development if needed.
@kemes Like I said, I haven't started working on it and am actually trying to wrap things up for a new LPrint 1.3.0 release.
What's going up be new on 1.3 ?
@milkman0007 From the CHANGES.md file:
Nice can you tell more about the pcl support ?
@milkman0007 I ported the CPCL (sorry typo) driver from the old CUPS rastertolabel driver. I was also going to port the Intellitech PCL driver but they have gone out of business... :/
Yeah I just saw intellitech close the door anyone know what happened ? Didn't they manage some label apps too ?
While a driver is listed for the Dymo Labelwriter wireless (LWW), I can't get anything to print on the one I have. I don't get any errors, but nothing prints via usb or network. Looking at the code, it looks like the same driver is being used as for the LW 450 and others. CUPS can't print to the LWW either.
The only thing I've found that can print to the LWW is this project: https://github.com/minlux/dymon. Based on the info there it seems that the LWW is using a different protocol than earlier LWs. :(
Unfortunately, Dymo has not issued any guides for this model that I am aware of. The above project has reverse engineered some of the protocol though.
Is the LWW supposed to work?
