Inserting the tape is simple: to cover, tape in, cover to.
Through a small window you can now also with the lid to see what is loaded on a tape.
Turns one, the unit is also ready for immediate use.
A yellow lit background shows a everything you write, in which mode you are in,
the font size is set, load capacity, etc.
To conserve battery power, the light goes quickly when you press any keys, but the display remains visible.
After a while, the Dymo then turns off completely.
Thanks to Quick Start Guide, you can start right away, and anyway explains most of the control buttons on the device itself.
The letters are arranged in alphabetical order and not as a computer keyboard.
So: insert the desired band, set different modes, press the button with the print and even the label comes out at the top.
Press once the big silver cutter button on the side and you can already pluck out the finished Aufkleberchen.
Who the keyboard is too strenuous, which can also connect your device to your PC and do there on the screen entries.
All very easy, the software CD is included.
Important: Indicated this Dymo only for Mac OS v10.4 or later (only ENG, DE, ES, FR, IT, NLPt) or Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows. 7
Whether there is something for other systems on the Internet or on support, I do not know, because not necessary with me.
At the Dymo 420P everything off that you need for an office or a company:
all the usual letters, numbers, symbols, umlauts and letters with accent etc. what more could you want?
Who actually wants more, includes the adapter to your computer and you've got even more ways.
From waste ago I can not complain, compared to my old Dymo (already 10 years old, but also with D1 bands) even less.
The case in which the Dymo is delivered with accessories is really great:
it can perfectly accommodate in the foam-padded part everything
. (Incl The recesses for just the 4 supplied bands:
6mm Black on Clear, 9mm Black on Yellow, 12mm black on white, 19mmSchwarz to red, all 7m length)
Those who want other colors or sizes, you can individually buy more commercially.
Price If you look at yes, before you buy the part.
Speaking of the price: The overall package is of course not a bargain, but you get for a solid device,
that's versatile. Whether you need everyone has to decide for yourself, because there are also cheaper.
Note: there are of Dymo yet another device in the case set (Dymo Label Manager 280)
connectable with only 3 bands it, but also on the PC and with a smaller but white illuminated screen and a QWERTY keyboard.
The device is a good deal cheaper.
Advantages of 420P: slightly larger screen, ABC keyboard, greater pressure level (14.9 mm instead of 8.1),
and 19mm tapes available, more dynamic memory and it can barcodes.
So if you can do without these advantages, has the opportunity to get cheaper reasonable Dymo device including suitcases.
