Compared to Brother P-Touch and Zebra software, Dymo Connect lacks both the convenience of an auto-select function and the flexibility of a customizable setup function. With Dymo Connect, you have to manually select the size and cannot set up special sizes that are not included in the existing options.
However, the advantage of Dymo Connect lies in its ease of use. On one hand, Dymo Connect provides some special printing templates like 30277 to help you print 2-up labels, such as price tags. On the other hand, designing labels with Dymo Connect feels very smooth.
The DYMO Connect app provides a variety of functionalities to improve your label-making process.
Design: The app boasts a user-friendly interface, ensuring effortless label creation for everyone.
Spell Check: Automatically detects and corrects spelling mistakes for accurate labels.
Voice-to-Text: Save time by dictating label text instead of typing.
Customization: Personalize your labels with a selection of fonts and images.
Label Types and Templates: Expedite label printing with the app's extensive collection of label types and templates.
Despite both devices having a default resolution of 300 dpi, the Brother QL1110NWB beat the 4XL in printing speed. Working exclusively with its own label line, Brother delivers professional-looking, die-cut labels in less time.
Additionally, Brother's generic labels, similar to Dymo's, offer an advantage. Brother labels come with their own cartridges, featuring the "auto-pick" feature for quicker and easier label loading. The built-in cutter further enhances efficiency in the labeling process.
If you're considering purchasing the Dymo LabelWriter 4XL printer, it's important to note that there are two versions of this model: the US version and the international version. These different versions determine the label series number. For instance, 4x6 inch labels are named 1744907 in the US version and S0904980 in the international version.
These two printer versions require different label sensors. The US version relies on index holes between labels as the sensor to help the printer identify each label. On the other hand, the international version requires both holes and black sensor marks on the backing paper.
Thanks to Betckey's product department, all Betckey labels designed to replace Dymo labels include both index holes and black sensor marks. This ensures compatibility with your printer, regardless of the version.
The Dymo LabelWriter 4XL supports a wide range of label sizes, thanks to its maximum print width of 4.16 inches . Below are the most common label sizes the Dymo 4XL can print, along with direct links to compatible labels for purchase:

Always consistent quality with these labels and with Betckey in general. Fast shipping; great prices when ordering in bulk and lots of choices for different colors in addition to the white ones.
These labels are every bit as good as the (Preferred) brand, at a lot less of a price.
Excellent service. I am very happy with the product. Recceived the labels next business day.
