Review: Nice printer, but a con.. - Funny rating I know given the review title. There is nothing wrong with the printer itself and does the job well. Unfortunately, it has been programmed at manufacture with 'convenient recognition technology' to recognise your label automatically, BUT it does not accept any compatible labels except Dymo and they are much more expensive than others we used on the old predecessor model. They have to have a hole or coding on the label reels that the printer picks up and if it isn't there, then the label printer won't work. That's a forced purchase and Not Cool!!!
Review: Infuriatingly slow!!! - Edit: after installing an upgrade and losing all my recent and favourites, and the ability to change the font size within a saved ticket, i decided to ditch the 550 & ordered a 450! Infuriatingly slow! If you need to print off several individual tickets quickly, this is not the right printer for you! What used to take 20 minutes now takes me an hour! The 450 had everything easily accessible from one screen. With the 550 you cannot even print multiple of the same label without having to navigate to another screen. The program is slow, one can no longer double click and print as quickly as pressing the mouse button 3 times! I find loading the labels awkward and fiddly because they are positioned closer to the feeder slot than the 450. I do like the Browse function, however, for the labels I use less often. Literally the only good thing about it!

## Features
