Print Postage from your PC with DYMO Stamps

April 2006 – Seven years after internet postage was introduced, many small- and home-based business owners in the U.S. are still standing in line at the Post Office to buy stamps, rather than going online. With businesses looking for every way to increase productivity, DYMO® has created the most compelling reason for businesses to print postage from their computers.

DYMO, the industry leader in on-demand labeling, has joined forces with Endicia, a leading supplier of online postage solutions, to develop the revolutionary, new DYMO Stamps™. This innovative service enables businesses to print postage direct from a DYMO LabelWriter® printer connected to their PC or Mac – without paying a monthly service fee. DYMO Stamps answers most small business postage needs by printing First Class, Priority Mail, Postcard, and International Airmail (up to 1 oz.) postage.

“What’s exciting is that DYMO Stamps will save small business owners time and money by eliminating monthly service fees commonly associated with Internet Postage, or the need to rent or lease a postal meter,” said Andrew Newmark, Sr. Vice President of Business Development for DYMO. “It’s really as easy as the LabelWriter itself. Pop in a roll of postage labels and open up the DYMO Stamps software, select the postage you need, and print. It’s fast, easy and cost effective.”

DYMO Stamps software works with DYMO’s high performance LabelWriter 400 Turbo, LabelWriter Twin Turbo and LabelWriter Duo printers, a series of small, fast, and economical thermal printers that never require ink or toner. LabelWriter printers are available through computer and office superstores, catalogs and online resellers. Instructions on downloading the free DYMO Stamps software are available at www.dymo.com.

LabelWriter printers are currently used by hundreds of thousands of American businesses to print address labels for envelopes and packages. They are compact and fast – about one label per second – and integrate with leading software such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Outlook.

“DYMO Stamps demonstrates the next wave of innovation that makes good on our brand promise, ‘The Easier, The Better,’ helping people organize their workday and improve their efficiency,” said Newmark. “With DYMO Stamps, our flagship LabelWriter printers gain additional and unique functionality that reaffirm just how important they can be to a small business.”
