DYMO Stamps(TM) Retail Launch Offers Next Generation of Internet Postage - DYMO Stamps combines online postage with certain DYMO LabelWriter printers -

STAMFORD, Conn., May 18 /PRNewswire/ -- When the time comes to buy stamps again, it won't have to involve driving to the post office and waiting in line. DYMO, the industry leader in on-demand labeling, is launching a new program for time-pressed, small business owners interested in a cost-effective, easy way to print online postage from the convenience of their home offices. Following a successful soft launch, DYMO Stamps(TM) will be available in retail May 18 and provide a fast, easy way to click and print postage with no long term contract or monthly fee.

DYMO has joined forces with Endicia, a leading supplier of online postage solutions, to develop this revolutionary, new software. This innovative service fulfills the promise of internet-based postage, empowering users to print postage in seconds with a DYMO LabelWriter 400 Turbo, Duo or Twin Turbo(R) printer connected to their PC or Mac -- without the monthly fee commonly charged by other internet postage providers. Account terms are subject to change and certain fees may apply in the future.

"Many on-the-go people have already found DYMO Stamps(TM) and are saving themselves time and money," said Andrew Newmark, Sr. Vice President of Business Development for DYMO. "People are spending less time driving and waiting and more time on their business and with their families." These DYMO LabelWriters can also quickly print address and return labels.

Through DYMO's postage partner, Endicia, time conscious individuals can easily establish free DYMO Stamps(TM) online accounts to purchase and print USPS(R)-approved postage with their DYMO LabelWriter 400 Turbo, Twin Turbo or Duo. DYMO Stamps(TM) software is available free to current owners of these models. DYMO Stamps can be used for first class, flat rate Priority and one ounce international mail. Compact and easy-to-use, these quick thermal printers eliminate the mess of ink or toner. They are the next generation of DYMO's popular PC and Mac compatible label makers.

LabelWriter printers are currently used by hundreds of thousands of Americans for a wide variety of purposes. They are compact, fast -- up to 40 labels per minute and can print more than 40 label styles and sizes for envelopes, packages, files and more.

"With the launch of DYMO Stamps(TM), our goal is to offer an instant solution to an ongoing need and make the weekly task of business and personal mailings easier," said Newmark. "When used in conjunction with one of our LabelWriter printers, this service brings the mailing solution into the small and home office and enables individuals to print, stick and mail faster than ever."
