DYMO's Junior product page specifies 9 mm embossing tape. Its Omega page lists embossing tape, and the label and tape chart groups both with the 9 mm embossing refills. The mechanical lever makes raised letters in the plastic strip. A cartridge for an electronic label maker is designed for a different feed and marking system.

Check the refill family and colour pack
Start with the name or model marked on your tool. For a Junior or Omega, look for 9 mm plastic embossing tape and a matching pack code. DYMO S0847750 is the multicolour embossing pack. DYMO lists the tape length as 3 m for each roll. The raised text is white on black, red or blue tape. Pick the pack for the colours and number of rolls you will use. DYMO S0847750 UK details
An old metal-bodied tool or a model with an unfamiliar name needs its own refill check. Measure the width and compare the feed path and roll housing with its manual. Embossing tape is a family of supplies, so use a model-specific match even if the width seems right. Keep the replacement roll in its packaging until you have checked it against the model.
For three colour choices
DYMO Assorted 9 mm Embossing Tape
Three plastic embossing rolls for a DYMO Junior or Omega. The pack gives you white lettering on black, red and blue tape.
Keep in mind. Check the embosser model and the 9 mm embossing tape family. Use a sample to check adhesion on the intended surface.

Choose S0847730 if you want white text on black across a whole set. Using one colour makes it easier to keep replacements consistent. DYMO specifies the same 9 mm width and 3 m roll length. The card below is the three-roll black pack. DYMO S0847730 UK details

DYMO White-on-Black 9 mm Embossing Tape

Load one roll and make a test label
Use the loading diagram for your model, paying attention to the tape's direction and where it enters the feed path. Once the roll sits correctly, close the cover and advance a little tape using the tool's instructions. Emboss a short word. Check that the raised characters appear evenly and the tape advances with each press. Use the cutter position specified by your tool to make the backing easier to peel.
If the tape does not advance, check the refill family, whether the tape end reaches the feed path and whether the cover closes freely. If the letters are faint, line the wheel up with the character position and use an even squeeze. Test again before feeding out a long strip. Check the character wheel if you are expecting an accent or symbol. A refill changes the tape colour and material. The available characters come from the wheel.
Choose the colour and surface for the finished label
On a pale drawer or storage tin, a dark background usually gives the raised lettering a clear outline. A red or blue label can mark a different category, but a simple word makes the meaning easier to recover later. Fit one sample in the flattest area of the object and check the contrast where it will be read. Short strips also make it easier to avoid grooves or tight curves.
Before labelling an entire set, check that the strip remains seated with normal handling and that you are happy with how it looks. If the strip keeps lifting on a curved or textured object, choose a flatter surface or a material intended for that application. Follow the curved surface guide to check the surface and adhesive together.

Common questions
What tape does the DYMO Omega take?
The Omega uses compatible 9 mm plastic embossing tape. Check the pack for the embossing family and your model.
Can the DYMO Junior and Omega share a refill?
Both use 9 mm DYMO embossing tape. S0847730 is a white-on-black option and S0847750 is the assorted pack.
Is 9 mm DYMO D1 the same as 9 mm embossing tape?
The two systems share a width option. D1 is an electronic label cassette and the Junior and Omega use plastic tape designed for mechanical embossing.
Does changing the embossing tape change the available characters?
The wheel sets the characters you can emboss. Select a refill for the right material, colour and fit, and check the wheel for accents and symbols.
Why is the tape not advancing after I load it?
Check the refill family, the direction in the loading diagram and whether the end of the tape enters the feed path. Follow the instructions for the exact tool and try one short sample.
