Original Press Release:
BarTender 9.0 from Seagull Scientific Introduces a Variety of New Label Print Job Management Features
Seagull Scientific has launched version 9.0 of their BarTender label and RFID software, which they say is their biggest software release in ten years. Front and center is the companion "Printer Maestro" application for enterprise print management. It provides users of any Windows program (not just BarTender) with a single viewing area for the status of all printers and print jobs for all computers on a network. (In contrast, Windows on its own has to "pop-up" a separate window for each printer.) The Enterprise Print Server edition of Printer Maestro also adds printer media usage tracking, which provides users with an on-screen "meter" showing the quantity of labels and ribbon remaining for each printer.
"The media usage and inventory tracking features in Printer Maestro were designed with printer and printer supply VARs in mind," said Jeremy Seigel, CEO of Seagull Scientific. "They can easily be copied on the automated e-mail and text message warnings about low media conditions, so they know which users are low on printer supplies and may be ready for new stock."
Version 9.0 of BarTender also introduces detailed logging of print job information and application messages to a database. To support high-security audits, logged information includes who printed each job, any warnings or errors that may have been generated, what label data was printed, and an optional software-generated image of each label. Users can easily inspect and "drill down" into the log using Seagull's new History Explorer application. They can even reprint any lost or damaged labels using either History Explorer or the separate, dedicated Reprint Console.
