Connect Your Label Printer
Plug your DYMO or Brother printer into your Chromebook's USB port. ChromeOS will detect it automatically — you'll see a notification confirming the connection.
Open OpenLabelMaker
Navigate to OpenLabelMaker.com in Chrome. The editor loads instantly — no account needed, no downloads. Everything runs client-side in your browser.
Choose Your Label Size
Select from DYMO 30252, 30334, Brother DK-1201, or any standard label size. The editor shows exact dimensions so you know exactly how your label will look.
Design Your Label
Add text, logos, barcodes, QR codes. Drag elements around, change fonts, adjust sizes. What you see is exactly what prints — pixel-perfect preview.
Print from Chrome
Click Print, select your DYMO or Brother printer, choose "More settings" → "Options" → "Fit to page: OFF". This ensures labels print at actual size without scaling.
💡 Chromebook Printing Tips
- Paper size: Select "Custom" and enter your label dimensions (e.g., 2.25" x 1.25")
- Margins: Set to "None" or "Minimum" to avoid white borders
- Scale: Always use "Actual size" or "100%" — never "Fit to page"
- Quality: Choose "High" or "Best" for crisp text and barcodes

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use DYMO Connect on Chromebook?
No, DYMO Connect is Windows/Mac software that doesn't run on ChromeOS. OpenLabelMaker is specifically designed to replace DYMO Connect for Chromebook users, offering the same features in a browser-based editor.
Do I need to enable Linux on my Chromebook?
No! OpenLabelMaker runs entirely in Chrome — no Linux containers, no developer mode, no special setup required. Just connect your printer and start designing.
Will my wireless Brother printer work?
Yes! Both USB and wireless Brother printers work with OpenLabelMaker. For wireless printers, make sure your Chromebook and printer are on the same Wi-Fi network, then select the printer in Chrome's print dialog.
Can I print to generic thermal printers?
Absolutely! Export your design as a PDF, then print using your thermal printer's standard drivers. OpenLabelMaker generates pixel-perfect PDFs at exact label dimensions.
