Trail License for Printer Code Templates?

Hi!

We’re planning to upgrade from BarTender Automation 10.3 to BarTender 2022 Enterprise. When we try to print some of our existing labels in 2022 Enterprise using a trial license, we receive an error indicating that the Printer Code Templates (PCT) feature is not available under the trial.

Here’s the Catch-22: company policy doesn’t allow us to upgrade software unless it has been validated, but we can’t purchase a production Enterprise license without validation that it will work.

Is there any way we could use PCT with trial license, or is there another approach you would recommend? Please advise.

Thank you.

  You maybe able to Provisionally Activate the licence as 2022 which will give you a full working version for a limited period of time, see
