BarTender v9.1 Service Release Downloads
Overview
The free Service Release at the bottom of this page can only be used to update
existing copies of BarTender where the version number begins with 9.1. For other versions of BarTender:
-
If you have version 10.0: Because you have the latest version of Bartender,
you can update
for free to the latest service release available.
-
If you have a version older than 10.0: You can only update for free to the latest service release available for your version. However, as long as your version is 9.2 or greater, you can always purchase an update to the very latest version of BarTender.
About BarTender 9.1
BarTender 9.1 (build 2592) was first released on April 21st, 2009. The most
significant new feature was the new BarTender Security Center, for specifying
user permissions and locking down label formats in high security
environments. (Please click here for more information about BarTender 9.1.)
BarTender 9.1 (Service Release 1)
Attention Enterprise Users: In order to use an
Enterprise edition of this BarTender service release, you must also download
the new Seagull License Server service release. (Please see bottom of page.)
Service Release #1 (build 2617) of BarTender 9.1 was released on July 20th, 2009
with the following enhancements:
-
Completed Translations:
The BarTender Security Center was originally shipped in English only. In
addition, some other enhancements were not yet available in translated form,
including changes to BarTender, Printer Maestro and History Explorer.
Service Release 1 now includes translated versions of all of these modules.
-
System Database Support for SQL 2008:
The BarTender System database used in the Enterprise editions now supports SQL
Server 2008 in addition to SQL Server 2005. (Functions of the BarTender
System Database include storing security settings, logging print job
information, and maintaining inventory of label supplies and printer
parts. You do not need to install a BarTender System Database in order to
use BarTender.)
-
Version Number Displayed within Setup Manager: (This
enhancement applies when installing from a CD, but not when installing
downloaded software from the web.) When you insert a BarTender CD into
your CD drive and the Setup Manager automatically runs, the opening screen will
now display the BarTender version and service release number (if any). (Note:
Because Seagull is now mass printing most of its CDs, the right-most digit of
the version number is no longer being printed on the CD.)
-
Minor Bugs: A few minor bugs were repaired with this
service release and are not described on this web site.
Installation Instructions
Starting with BarTender 9.0, the update instructions became simpler than they
were for older versions of BarTender. After downloading the latest
BarTender 9.x service release:
-
If you Already Installed a Version of BarTender 9.1: Do not
bother to remove your old software. Simply, install the Service Release
over your existing installation of BarTender 9.1. You will not
be prompted to re-enter your original Product Key Code (PKC).
-
If you Never Installed BarTender 9.1: Simply perform a new
install of your downloaded BarTender 9.1 service release. When prompted for a
Product Key Code (PKC), provide the one that came with your original copy of
BarTender 9.1.
Download
All download options listed below have everything you need to start designing
labels right away. The "BarTender only" option is the smallest file and will
therefore download the fastest. The larger "Full BarTender Suite" downloads
include Security Center, Commander, Printer Maestro, History Explorer, the
Reprint Console, and support for detailed Print Job Logging to a SQL database.
They also include the BarTender .NET SDKs.
The multilingual downloads support instant switching of the user-interface
between more than 20 languages, but they take somewhat longer to download than
English only. (The supported languages can be seen in the list of
BarTender "Getting Started" Manuals.)
