The Intelligent Mail barcode is USPS barcode technology used to sort and track letters and flats. Intelligent Mail barcode technology combines the capabilities of the POSTNET barcode and the PLANET Code barcode into one unique barcode. DYMO Label Software version 8 automatically utilizes Intelligent Mail barcodes in address templates on labels with the minimum length 3 1/2" (e.g. 30251, 30252). However, if you prefer to print your address labels without it, you can also remove it by choosing 'None' under Intelligent Mail barcode in 'Address Object Properties'.

DYMO Label Software comes with many pre-defined, customizable label templates. You can either open a label template that contains a graphic object or use the designer to place a graphic object on a label. To change the image that appears within the graphic object: Double click on the graphic object/image that appears on the label template. A dialog box will appear. Select the graphic/image you'd like to appear on the label and click OK. For best results when you import a graphic, make sure the graphic you are importing is close to the size of the graphic that will appear on the label. For example, if you want to print your company logo on a shipping label, do not import this logo using a graphic that is 5 x 7 inches. Use black and white graphics whenever possible.

DYMO only supports installations where the ACT! application is installed locally. While you may be able to make this work, due to differences in network configurations DYMO is only able to support local installations.
First, verify that the LabelWriter has been added to the printer list on the local workstation (the workstation where the LabelWriter is physically connected to), DYMO Label Software (DLS) for Mac OS X is installed, and that the LabelWriter prints without issue on the local workstation from DLS. Once you've verified those elements, you will need to enable sharing to give other Mac OS X workstations on the network access to the printer. To enable printer sharing, click on the Apple icon and select System Preferences. In the System Preferences window, click on the Sharing icon. Turn Printer Sharing on. Go back to the System Preferences window and click on the Printers and Scanners icon. Select the LabelWriter and tick the option Share this printer on the network. In order to print to the LabelWriter from other Mac OS X workstations on the network, you'll need to add the LabelWriter to the printer list on each workstation you wish to print from.
