Dymo recently trashed their entire business reputation (hopefully) pulling the same crap.They even went to the point of modifying their Amazon listing for their old label printer, so it has all the good reviews for the old product, but selling the new crap DRM-locked garbage product.
So all the newer reviews are people complaining, but the star average is still high for the moment.

I've used probably a dozen Labelwriters among the 400, 450 and turbo ones, and never ever had any issues by using non original rolls. This is nothing but an anti-consumer measure; I'll never buy or suggest a Dymo product again, and my rolls already work perfectly on my old Zebra printer.
