Printing Labels from Other Programs
Using the Excel Add-In (Windows)
DYMO Label software includes a software add-in so you can quickly print labels from a
Microsoft Excel document. The add-in works with Microsoft Excel XP, 2003, 2007, and
2010 for Windows.
The Excel Add-in treats each column in a row as a line of data on the label and each row as
a new label.
You can use the add-in to preview your labels and change the label properties before
printing, or you can use Quick Print to print labels using the last selected settings.

Click Print Label in the toolbar.
