Dymo label printer driver plugin for InvenTree
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# inventree-dymo-plugin
 | 
						|
 |

[](https://opensource.org/license/gpl-3-0)
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A label printer driver plugin for [InvenTree](https://inventree.org/), which provides support for Dymo Label Writer® printers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Compatibility
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following printers are already supported by the driver:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- DYMO Label Writer 450
 | 
						|
- DYMO Label Writer 450 Duo (Tape is not supported currently)
 | 
						|
- DYMO Label Writer 450 Turbo
 | 
						|
- DYMO Label Writer 450 Twin Turbo
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Requirements
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Currently only printing over network is supported, so an RAW network socket server needs to be connected to the printer. A raspberry pi zero w is just enough for that job.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The easiest way to set this up, is using cups and configure a RAW printer device in combination with `xinetd` like described in this [blog post](https://nerdig.es/labelwriter-im-netz-teil1/).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Installation
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> :warning: This plugin is only compatible with InvenTree>=0.16 because this uses the new label printer driver interface introduced with [inventree/InvenTree#4824](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/pull/4824) and was fixed with 0.16 to work inside of workers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Goto "Admin Center > Plugins > Install Plugin" and enter `inventree-dymo-plugin` as package name.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Then goto "Admin Center > Machines" and create a new machine using this driver.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Technical working
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This driver implements the RAW Dymo LabelWriter® 450 Series commands like described in the [technical reference manual](https://download.dymo.com/dymo/technical-data-sheets/LW%20450%20Series%20Technical%20Reference.pdf) to send the label data to the printer.
