Smart Label Printer 650, USB, PC/Mac, 3.94 inches/second, 300 DPI

These are a good little label printer with good software. I installed many of these as a technician prior to my retirement. I don't ever remember one failing. Easy to install and operate.

This is such a great little label printer! I wish I had found it sooner. It works better and with less hassle than the last Dymo printers I've bought. Years ago I used Seiko Smart Label Printers with my Mac computers. Then for some reason I couldn't find one and switched to Dymo. For years that worked fine---until it didn't. I have been so frustrated this past couple of years. Ever since I had to update my Mac system OS X version 10.7.5, my Dymo printer refused to work. I got a new one, thinking that since it said it was for Mac, it would work. It worked for only a very short period of time. I got it started again, and it failed again---this time, permanently. My technical adviser recommended that I find a different brand, and I "rediscovered" the Seiko Smart Label Printer. I was amazed at how easy it was to set up, input the labels I use frequently, and print them. It would have taken me hours to do that on my old Dymo label printers. This one is a real winner!

Jumped to a new desktop and from windows xp to windows 8.1. I had a SLP120 since windows 98. When I went to XP it took a bit to get drivers, but once I had them installed it worked great. After all these years, I was not going to try to find drivers for 8.1, and I wanted some of the new graphic functionality. The 650 installed fast and clean. I copplied over the address data base. It picked up with no issues, even kept the same label formatting. First time I opend it asked if I wanted to update the database format, Clicked YES, it did and all is working well. Printer is fast, just a bit noisy. I like that it does a narrow or wide label. looks to be solid built.

I like their products, but the computer interface functionality changed (from a previous printer I had) and their was no manual to explain how to thoroughly use the printer.

Had an older 440 that would not commuicate with Window 11. Now, thru the USB cable,included, no problems.

Nice little printers! Very sleek and responsive and it doesn’t waste labels when replacing rolls. These are cheaper than the 650 SE’s and the only difference is it doesn’t have serial ports, just USB. Would recommend.

As the title says, I received the first printer and could not get it to power on. I asked for a replacement which was sent promptly but arrived with the same problem. I am the first to think I am doing something wrong. I measured the voltage coming from the power supply to check if that was the issue. The label on the printer says it needs 5.7 to 6.3 V DC. The power supply included in the package outputs 12V DC, which I measured with a meter and it is 12V. Not sure if that is the issue. Bottom line they were quick to send another device but now i have two non working printers. I have been using earlier models for years and they have always been bullet proof. Not sure what has happened. Edit: My guess about the power was correct. I hooked up my bench variable DC supply set to 6 VDC and the printer worked. Somehow the vendor has a batch of these with incorrect power supply (AC Adapter)

Does the job for want we require.
