 For MAC Users 

*****Dymo LabelWriter 450 & 450 Turbo Users*****

 Diversified Biotech labels will work with the Dymo LabelWriter 450 and 450 Turbo but an earlier version of the software has to be used.  Following are instructions to guide you through the setup process.  These instructions will help you install version 7.8 of the Dymo software and provide you with the files needed to allow the software to recognize LabelWriter 450 printers. See the files listed below.

 Installing version 7.8 and the proper Dymo Labelwriter 450 drivers:
1) Insert the CD provided by Dymo (v. 8.0)
2) Run the software installation (Proper drivers are installed)
3) Download, unzip and install the DLS 7.8 software below
4) When prompted to delete the “Current” and “Resource” folders, select delete (this writes v 7.8 over v 8.0)
5) Click "Next" again and un-check "Yes, I want to install DYMO file now," click "Next" and "Finish".
6) Download, unzip and save the labels.xml and DYMOLabelSettings.xml (file below) to the main Dymo folder [Applications\DYMO Label].  You will be asked if you want to overwrite the existing files, click "Yes"
7) Download and unzip the appropriate zip file below and double click the .REG file to update the registry

 If you have already installed the Dymo LabelWriter 450/450 Turbo and version 8.0:
Follow the instructions above starting with Step #3.

MAC Files:

DivBio recently updated the formatting of our Direct Thermal Cryo-Tags to comply with changes in the LabelWriter.  If you have used our labels in the past, but have just received labels with a vertical orientation, you will need to update your Labels.xml file.  No additional changes to the software need to be made.  The updated file will allow your current setup to utilize the new layout. 

Labels.xml - Label definition file for MAC users  - Right click and save to the following folder on your computer - Applications/Dymo Label
