Printing from iPhone and iPad

JetLabel on iOS and iPadOS supports AirPrint and suitably configured network label printers using supported protocols. Check the printer and its network configuration before printing.

Each model page shows whether the printer works on Mac with its macOS driver and whether direct network printing from iPhone and iPad is possible. The ratings are based on manufacturer specifications. Brother QL and Bluetooth direct printing are not supported on iOS.

Does the DYMO LabelWriter 4XL work on macOS?

Yes, with the macOS driver from DYMO. JetLabel prints through the macOS printing system; on Mac it does not send printer commands directly. This assessment is based on the manufacturer’s specifications, not on a test by JetLabel. Try it with your printer during the 7-day trial.

And on iPhone and iPad?

Printing from iPhone and iPad is not supported for the DYMO LabelWriter 4XL.

FAQ

About the DYMO LabelWriter 4XL

No. JetLabel prints on Mac through the macOS printing system, so the DYMO LabelWriter 4XL needs a working macOS driver.

Printing from iPhone and iPad is not supported for the DYMO LabelWriter 4XL.

Yes. The 4XL is the wide 4-inch LabelWriter and is commonly used for 102 × 159 mm (4×6) shipping labels at 300 dpi.

No. Based on specs the 4XL is a 450-generation model with no RFID lock, so third-party 4×6 rolls are accepted — unlike the 5XL.

Community-reported, DYMO Connect for Mac needs macOS 10.14 or later for the 4XL.
