Just two years after buying the DYMO LabelManager 160, it spoiled.
The error message is “Label jam!” and none of the solutions listed in the official article, How to solve the ‘Tape Jam’ and ‘Motor Stall’ errors on my LabelManager?, works.

Previously, I used the DYMO LabelManager 280 that I got seven years ago. I bought it at an excellent price of S$27.18, which excludes the shipping cost to Singapore.
Sadly, I think there is some power issue with the device, and I can no longer switch it on. Also, the LCD screen is starting to turn black as well. It has served Li Xiang and me for a good seven years.
The DYMO LabelManager 280 Rechargeable Hand-Held Label Maker was having a goldbox deal on Amazon on 7th January 2016. The normal retail price is US$91.79 (S$132) but for the goldbox deal, it drops to US$18.99 (S$27.18). Now, it is back up to US$26.98 (S$39).
Unfortunately, it doesn’t ship directly to Singapore, so you have to use a freight forwarder like HopShopGo.
