I have been trying to set up my dymo labelwriter to print 4x6 labels . I had raspbian OS it was pretty straightforward since I am using Manjaro now I have been unable to get my dymo printer to print a 4x6 label anybody knows an easy way to do it I would appreciate it I have set up the printer that does print but not the labels of the proper size
I am running a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8 gigs of RAM SSD card
cups list is correctly as DYMO LabelWriter 4XL
in the set printer options there’s many labels that are available 4 x 6 label is not available that is what I desperately need if any call me I would really appreciate this
Please read this: How to provide good information
and post some more information so we can see what’s really going on. Now we know the symptom of the disease, but we need some more probing to know where the origin lies…
An inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width would be the minimum required information… (Personally Identifiable Information like serial numbers and MAC addresses will be filtered out by the above command)
Also, please copy-paste that output in-between 3 backticks ``` at the beginning and end of the code/text.
Which PPD file did you use under Raspbian and which PPD file are you using now?
P.S. If you enter a bit more details in your profile, we can also see which Desktop Environment you’re using, which CPU/GPU or Kernel, … you have without typing it every time
In the future, when providing code/output, please copy-paste that output in-between 3 backticks ``` at the beginning and end of the code/text so that the output looks like this:

instead of like this:

(as that makes both our lives much easier)
No need to do anything right now as I’m an editor here on this site and have fixed it for you already. However, in the future I might not see your post so review my edits by pushing the orange pencil above the post I just fixed.
If you don’t understand any question anyone is asking you, just say “I don’t understand the question.”
I would like to thank you all for your help. I fixed it by buying a hp computer and loading Manjaro on it it has a Amd chip and runs a lot faster than my pi. I know there is a driver that works for in Raspberry Pi os it worked just fine. I was unable to with Manjaro on Pi to get it to work.
I am now into 3d printing and 3d design so needed a faster computer.
