Seagull BarTender alternative. Free for Windows
Do this in the free app: app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup. Design the label, then print on a Zebra or download PNG / PDF / ZPL.
Searching for a Seagull BarTender alternative because the license expired or the quote is for enterprise? Design the label in the free label maker, map Excel columns, and print on a Zebra. No BarTender seat.
Good to know: This is for simple thermal labels (SKU, barcode, ship-from, bin). It is not a replacement for BarTender Automation, RFID encoding, or a print server farm.
How to replace Seagull BarTender for simple labels
- Open the free label maker. No signup.
- Set the size to the roll in the printer (often 2x1 or 4x6).
- Add text and a native barcode. Map {{sku}} or {{code}} if you have a sheet.
- Print with Zebra Browser Print, or export PNG, PDF, or ZPL.
What you keep vs what you leave
- Keep: one layout, many rows from Excel or Google Sheets
- Keep: CODE128, UPC, QR, and a live preview
- Leave: BarTender Integration Builder, SAP middleware, RFID
- Windows and Mac both work. The editor is the browser
Print or save
Zebra thermal: print from the browser with Browser Print at the printer’s DPI. Everyone else: download PNG, JPEG, SVG, PDF, or ZPL. JSON keeps the editable master.
