About Your New Labelmaker
With your new DYMO ExecuLabel™ LP250
labelmaker, you can create a wide variety of highquality, self-adhesive labels. You can choose to
print your labels in many different sizes and styles.
The labelmaker uses DYMO D1 label cassettes in
widths of
1/4” (6 mm), 3/8” (9 mm), and 1/2” (12 mm)
.
Label cassettes are also available in a wide range
of colors.
Visit www.dymo.com for information on obtaining
labels and accessories for your labelmaker.

address within seven days. Visit www.dymo.com/

Getting Started
Follow the instructions in this section to print your
first label.
Connecting the Power
The labelmaker is powered by standard batteries or
an AC power adapter. To save power, the
labelmaker will automatically turn off after two
minutes of inactivity.
Inserting the Batteries
The labelmaker uses six AA alkaline batteries.
To insert the batteries
1. Remove the battery compartment cover. See
Figure 2.
Figure 2
2. Insert the batteries following the
polarity markings (+ and –).
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Remove the batteries if the labelmaker will
not be used for a long period of time.
Connecting the Power Adapter
An optional AC power adapter can also be used to
power the labelmaker. Connecting the AC adapter
to the labelmaker disconnects the batteries as a
power source.
To connect the power adapter
1. Plug the power adapter into the power connector
on the top of the labelmaker.
2. Plug the other end of the power adapter into a
power outlet.
Make sure the labelmaker power is turned off
before you disconnect the power adapter from the
main power source. Otherwise, your most recent
memory settings will be lost.
Inserting the Label Cassette
Your labelmaker comes with one label cassette.

Getting to Know the Labelmaker
Become familiar with the location of the feature and
function keys on your labelmaker. Refer to Figure1
on the inside front cover. The following sections
describe each feature in detail.
Power
The A button turns the power on and off. After
two minutes of no activity, the power is switched off
automatically. The last label created is
remembered and displayed when the power is
turned back on. The previously selected style
settings are also restored.
You can also use the
A
button to cancel printing
and return to edit mode.
LCD Display
The labelmaker’s LCD display shows a row of 13
characters. However, you can enter up to 99
characters and spaces.
The display window can accommodate 13
characters. As you type more characters, they
begin to scroll to the left. (See Figure 6.) The
number of characters actually displayed can vary
due to proportional spacing.
Figure 6
In addition, feature indicators appear on the display
to let you know when a feature is selected. See
Figure 7.
