DYMO LabelWriter 4XL
Labels do not have to be DYMO-brand, but they need to be DYMO-compatible (Pirate Ship). Shopify lists the newer 5XL, not the 4XL.

The call
The difference is how much choice you have over labels. Rollo says any direct thermal label from 1.57 to 4.1 inches wide works; the 4XL needs DYMO-compatible rolls. Put the labels each one takes into the Label Cost Calculator and compare cost per label before you settle on the printer.
