About Your New Label Maker

With the DYMO® LabelManager® 120P electronic label maker, you can create a wide variety of high-quality, self-adhesive labels. You can choose to print your labels in many different font sizes and styles. The label maker uses DYMO D1 tape cassettes in widths of 3/8” (9 mm) or 1/2” (12 mm). These tape cassettes are available in a wide range of colors. Visit www.dymo.com for information on obtaining labels and accessories for your label maker.
