Windows 11 Printer Issue - DYMO LW450 DUO is not installing correctly/entirely
Horrgakx1530 you need to uninstall and remove all printers (+ print management) then reinstall the app which will reinstall the drivers.
if still not workin try to change the drivers port USB1/2/3.
MichekC thanks for the reply. I actually upgraded my PC (well, a complete replacement actually) so everything is fresh.
I have not tried a different USB port, yiu think that might make a difference?
- larrylagNov 13, 2023Copper ContributorI know this doesn't address ur problem directly but may be worth giving it a try. I've tried this when I have had issues getting both printers to work on my win 11. I have a Duo 400 not a 450. Try it with printer on and connected to USB port. Preferably USB 2.
Windows key + R and type in services.msc and press Enter
Find “Print Spooler” Right-click on it and select “Restart”
If it doesn't work try it with the printer disconnected. - cristina1600Nov 13, 2023Copper Contributor
DRonski Windows11 was just installed on my laptop. The DYMO printer app will open and then close. I uninstalled and reinstalled the label printer app.
- I tried installing https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5026446 suggested by SchuelerJB but got the same pop-up that Horrgakx1530 mentioned "This update is not applicable to your computer"
- I tried a different USB port as suggested, but the app opens and immediately closes as before
DavidR_DYMO What other protips are out there?

Yes I had to change USB ports, mine was working ok after the last fix and then suddenly my "Tape" printer disappeared. I tried reinstalling everything and still nothing, switched my USB ports and both Printers showed. They are both showing up when I got to start a new label at the top but only the Label Printer shows at the bottom of the screen, when not in the creating a new label view.
