Label Design Software BarTender
With every sale of a CITIZEN label thermal transfer printer, the customer receives the free label software Bar Tender Light, which is used to design and print labels containing text, graphics and the most commonly used barcodes by using the barcode generator. In the cases where customers need functions such as serial numbers, data base links or products such as SAP and Oracle, we offer the paid version BarTender Professional for printing professional labels. They are suitable for large, mid-size and small businesses. You can download a 30-day trial version from the Seagull Scientific website to create and print label design templates.
