Support for Labelwriter 450 Turbo

[grecky-goo]

I have tried many different things to get this to work:

1. Printer driver was installed as a cups driver, not an storage device or a hid device. It shows up using lsusb, but is not in the HID device directory. I can print a test page to it. It works.
2. When dymoprint runs, it reports the Labelprinter pnp is not found.
3. I've tried messing with the code to change the device id, but I'm new to setuptools, and can't change any code. Yes, I've done the pip install -e. I added print() statements just to verify the new code is running, and it isn't.
4. setup.py only runs with the pip install -e command, it does not run by itself.

So, pathetic as I am, I'm asking if you could add the code to make a Labelwriter 450 Turbo to work, I would appreciate it. lsusb shows the vendor as 0922, and the device id as 0021. I have no idea how to change 1001 and 1002 to the right numbers in the modeswitch files.

Help!

Hi! Unfortunately this program only supports the LabelManager PnP. The 450 uses completely different technology, so I'm sorry to say that dymoprint in its current form cannot support the 450.

OK. Thanks, back to glabel

Ya, sorry for the bad news. Thanks for making the effort to bring this up. We would really like to support other devices which use the same technology: see #44. I added a note there about the 450.

I think I was wrong. According to this reference manual it uses the same technology.
