About Your New Label Maker
With your new DYMO LabelManager™ 450D label maker, you can create a wide variety of high-quality, self-adhesive labels. You can choose to print your labels in many different sizes and styles. The label maker uses DYMO D1 label cassettes in widths of 1/4” (6 mm), 3/8” (9 mm), 1/2” (12 mm),
3/4” (19 mm), or 1” (24 mm). Label cassettes are also available in a wide range of materials.
Visit www.dymo.com for information on obtaining labels and accessories for your label maker.
Warranty Registration
Please complete the warranty registration card and return it to the appropriate Customer Support address within seven days of purchase. Visit www.dymo.com/registration for details.
Getting Started
Follow the instructions in this section to print your first label.
Connecting the Power
The label maker can operate on AC or battery power. To save power, the label maker will automatically turn off after two minutes of inactivity.
Inserting the Batteries
The label maker uses six 1.5 volt high-capacity AA alkaline batteries.

Connecting the Power Adapter
An optional AC power adapter can also be used to power the label maker. Connecting the power adapter to the label maker disconnects the batteries as a power source.
To connect the power adapter
1.Plug the power adapter into the power connector on the top, left side of the label maker.
2.Plug the other end of the power adapter into a power outlet.
x Make sure the label maker power is turned off before you disconnect the power adapter from the main power source. Otherwise, your most recent memory settings will be lost.
