When I bought it, about two years or so ago, it cost around $80-plus. Labels are sold in various sizes, all on rolls of waxed paper with the outer side bearing the sticky, peelable, heat-sensitive paper.
The Dymo labels you're talking about are plastic or foil with a peelable backing, and the tape takes and holds embossings well, even changes color where the pressure is applied. These labels, for this $80 machine, look and feel kinda like those address labels you can special order with your name and address already printed on them, but these come as blanks. Your printer applies heat to them, instead of pressure, and the heat causes them to seriously darken. So in fact, the process is essentially dot-matrix-like.

Maybe I'm the only one who doesn't know what this is, but I'm curious. Dymo labels have always meant to me the plastic tape labels with embossed letters, be it block letters or braille. Then you peel off the backing. The tape comes in many colors, or clear for braille. Is this what this printer makes, or are you talking about printing with ink on paper labels? Any info on the printer would be appreciated as well, such as where to buy it and about how much it costs. Thanks!
