Can I set up my LP2834 printer to print 2 small labels across????
Someone gave me 6 rolls of labels like that and I would like to use them. I am using Quickbooks Point of Sale and can't figure out how to do it.
Thanks,

See if it still happens using a fresh label roll. From the Dymo 450 User Guide the common causes of poor print quality issues.
Poor print quality is most frequently caused by one of the following:
• An old roll of labels
• Labels made by a manufacturer other than DYMO
• Labels where the thermal coating has been compromised
• A dirty print head
First, make sure you are using DYMO-branded labels. Do not use third-party labels because the thermal coating on other labels has a different sensitivity than DYMO-branded labels. Also, the perforated holes between the labels made by other manufacturers are frequently not detectable by LabelWriter printers.
If the print quality becomes faint, small dots of white appear scattered through the printed characters, or light and dark patches of printing appear, you are probably using a faulty roll of labels. Try using a different roll from a fresh box. If the second roll prints correctly, the problem is with the first roll of labels.
Another possibility is that the LabelWriter print head needs cleaning. Every LabelWriter printer comes with a cleaning card. See "Caring for Your Printer" on page 17 for information about the
LabelWriter cleaning card.
Most reasons for this is a slight adjustment problem with page length. You can recalibrate the printer via the menu system, doing it this way will adjust the sensors with new settings
I assume by double tags you mean 2 labels across the roll. You need to tell your software that the roll is 2 across. If using the software that comes with the printer, Zebra designer. Set your label width to twice the single label and copy the barcode so that you have 2 across the label, then print
Ok, when you say continuous...do you mean it is a roll of label material that does not have gaps in between? If it has gaps...it is NOT a continuous label and you probably have the driver settings set as continuous feed and not gap as it should be....

As it turns out, a good cleaning took care of the problem. I suspect the sensor bar was dirty so it could not detect the black line on the back of the labels for alignment.
For the cutter to work it is necessary to instruct the printer to "Use the cutter" This setting is usually accessible in the printer driver. Your label program interacts with the printer driver. Ensure that the cutter option is selected in the printer driver.
You need to calibrate the printer using the instructions located in the
manual. This should be in area 5.2 of the manual. If you don't have the
manual you can download them at this address along with software
updates and firmware updates.

Label printers are always finicky. I have strtix printers where I work and they give off wacky errors too.
