Hey Fedi, bit of printer advice please....

I'm looking for replacement label printers - we used to use Dymo 450 but they were EOL'd a while back and the new software's a bin-fire. Any subsequent Dymos have DRM'd consumables so we can't use non-Dymo labels, cos Dymo are bastards.

Ideally we want something with a wired LAN interface, or that I can hook into CUPS on a Pi to network-print given a PDF. Must be able to take 1" and 1.5" label rolls.

Anyone, please?

As far as printers go, I rather liked working with the Boca Lemur ticket printers; I think they can take label rolls as well and you can get them with a cutter. Any mechanical interface you want (serial, Ethernet, etc), CUPS support, or you can send raw commands in their "friendly ghostscript language".
