Dymo label printer driver plugin for InvenTree
inventree-dymo-plugin
A label printer driver plugin for InvenTree, which provides support for Dymo Label Writer® printers.
Compatibility
The following printers are already supported by the driver:
- DYMO Label Writer 450
- DYMO Label Writer 450 Duo (Tape is not supported currently)
- DYMO Label Writer 450 Turbo
- DYMO Label Writer 450 Twin Turbo
Requirements
Currently only printing over network is supported, so an RAW network socket server needs to be connected to the printer. A raspberry pi zero w is just enough for that job.
The easiest way to set this up, is using cups and configure a RAW printer device in combination with xinetd
like described in this blog post.
Installation
:warning: This plugin is only compatible with InvenTree>=0.16 because this uses the new label printer driver interface introduced with inventree/InvenTree#4824 and was fixed with 0.16 to work inside of workers.
Goto “Admin Center > Plugins > Install Plugin” and enter inventree-dymo-plugin
as package name.
Then goto “Admin Center > Machines” and create a new machine using this driver.
Technical working
This driver implements the RAW Dymo LabelWriter® 450 Series commands like described in the technical reference manual to send the label data to the printer.
