However, for 1744907-- the extra-large 4" x 6" shipping labels, this printer won’t Work. The reasoning behind this is simple: It doesn’t support 4" x 6" labels. The label slot isn’t wide enough to print a standard 4" wide postage label. Its maximum supported width is 2.2". For printing 4" x 6" labels, you would need to use the DYMO LabelWriter 4XL, as its XL support comes from its ability to print 4-inch wide postage labels. So Dymo 450 would not be able to print FBA Labels, but a 4XL would work.
