Hello,

I use the Dymo LabelWriter 450 and have been very pleased with the results.  I am using the Multipurpose 1" x 1" labels.

I have a Zebra GX430t and use SpineOmatic. The printer is fairly easy to maintain. It has caused me little to no grief in the 2 & 1/2 years that I've been in this position.

Looks like maybe a Firefox problem? Thanks Laura & Shellie.

Following up on a discussion from the Tuesday call...

I've uploaded a copy of the installation files for the WLN-OCLC converter program here:
https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fdrive.google.com%2ffile%2fd%2f1BGfS0Hl81E3QZn9U7ZwhvyJxlNodi00N%2fview%3fusp%3dsharing&c=E,1,UdvwLjlTIScFSwAznsnsKJy_03tceICJrmjjKAL85JKxGkdhcTj0JT8N71KMJD-3ujEG4K2YnFc4IuiWdPCeBj_WYADb_3JWjfpAVAXoVg,,&typo=1

Here are the instructions that OCLC used to have for it:

Once unzipped, the file is approximately 69 megabytes and you will need enough hard drive space to accommodate it. 
	. Click on the download link below to download a zipped file named convert.exe to a directory that you specify.
	. When the download is complete, open Windows Explorer, and find the convert.exe file just downloaded.
	. Double-click on it to unzip it.
	. Unzipping this file will create four new files: oclc.dat, rid.dat, and wln.dat (all dated 07/19/2000) and wlnoclc.exe (dated 07/25/2000).

To use the converter, do the following: 
	1. Open the WLN/OCLC converter window by double clicking on wlnoclc.exe.
	2. Click on one of the three radio buttons labeled with the control number sources: WLN 001, WLN 035, and OCLC 001.
	3. Type or copy/paste the control number from another source and press the Convert button.
	4. After the Match Results display, shift to the primary window (i.e., local system, OCLC, or WLN) and paste the system copied result into a search argument or another application.?

Note: OCLC doesn't provide or support this program anymore.  They recommend that if you still have WLN bib records without corresponding OCLC numbers in your local system, you contact them about doing a reclamation project.

Julie,

(And I'm posting to wactclc-alma as well, to let others chime in)...

Spineomatic is a good way to print one-at-a-time spine labels, for sure. The other primary label printing tool people are using is Connexion.

I've used both Zebra and Dymo printers successfully.

Dymo printers are much cheaper (under $100). Zebra printers can run up to several hundred, depending on the model.

The Dymo Label Writer 450 is the most common dymo printer in use.

Does anyone on the list using a LabelWriter 450 have recommendations, suggestions, or preferences regarding the types of labels to use?

Hello Wade,

We are researching Spineomatic for printing our spine labels in Alma. I found this:
https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.google.com%2furl%3fsa%3dt%26rct%3dj%26q%3d%26esrc%3ds%26source%3dweb%26cd%3d1%26cad%3drja%26uact%3d8%26ved%3d0ahUKEwiqooWsp7jcAhUVHDQIHeirDL0QFggpMAA%26url%3dhttps%253A%252F%252Fdevelopers.exlibrisgroup.com%252Fblog%252FSpineOMatic-Label-Printing-Software-for-Alma%26usg%3dAOvVaw00jjbP32TfObFHCpV4D-nk&c=E,1,cKeNd7BWBGW-wvNDHOjzQ9qfrfDUug-0cJz78cipiV2HuXgS_KdWO7n7aMwVnmVZ_ezjGkRigjZhCt2ZnxQF8PAhLMwidoqwCNYke-zBGpoB2A,,&typo=1
Also we are interested in printers that will print one label at a time, so that I can tear it off and insert it into the book.
The link above lists these compatible printers:
Compatible SpineOMatic Printers
SpineOMatic will print to any printer that can be installed on Windows. The following types of desktop thermal and thermal-transfer label printers have been successfully used with SpineOMatic:
          Zebra
           DYMO
           Smart Label Printers
Do you have experience with any of these printers and would share your recommendations with us?

Thank you,
Julie Bishop
