However, note that existing labels are dependent on the printer driver active when the label was created - if you switch drivers in this case, the lay-out will be mixed up (missing texts and barcodes) and you will have to edit and fix the label.
#Bartender by seagull install
It is advisable to install the Seagull printer drivers. Experience learned that the Seagull printer driver is much faster than, for example, the Zebra printer drivers. Seagull supplies printer drivers for most label printers. This can be done by adding a Windows scheduled task which restarts the Seagull License Server once every night (also see 17.672.076 restarting Pick-IT RF services). It is advisable to restart the License service each night. See document 17.643.651 - changing the port for the Seagull License Server. On re-installing, the key first has to be de-activated (maximum of 3 times, after that, contact Seagull support). This key will be registered online at Seagull and cannot be used in another environment. The License server and Bartender have to be registered with the same CD-key supplied to you. This is done by the service itself every 24 hours. This can be solved by starting the License Server management tool and removing (' DEL') the 'extra' printer(s). When a 4th printer is used, Bartender will switch to demo mode (replacing characters randomly in the label). The Enterprise version of the Seagull License Server grants the usage of 3 different printers throughout the network. On every print or preview, the Seagull License Server is contacted and the used printer is registered. Īfter this, Bartender can be installed on a unlimited number of workstations. With the service, a management tool is installed which can be started in. This is a Windows service, which uses not much resources. What do I need to know before installing Bartender ?įirst the Seagull License Server has to be installed (only once) on a server in the network.
