Smart Label Printer for Mac

Whilst Seiko's Smart Label Printer software (v1.8.2) continues to run with El Capitan (MacOSX 10.11.3), it has become unusable because a scaling issue has somehow crept in, and labels are not printed at the correct size (they are much too large). I have contacted Sekio support and they simply agree that it does not work anymore and say they do not plan to fix this relatively trivial problem. They suggest using their new Smart Label Creator software instead, although that does not work with the SLP 430 printer I have.

Furthermore it is obviously a pretty horrible direct port of their Windows software and looks like it with ugly Windows-style icons. What's more there is no ability to access the Mac Address Book, so what with one thing and another I have now jumped ship to Dymo, whose software is not perfect but it is at least vastly better than the new Seiko software!

Latest version is 1.8.1 (969) but as always there are no release notes. The previous version worked fine under ML so that can't be the reason for the update. There's a new icon which is probably a good thing - the old one was pretty old and untidy with scaling artefacts. The one obvious thing that they need to add has still not appeared - namely a "Paste and Match Style" or similar - very frustrating to set up templates but then have to always change the style of pasted text every time you paste something in.

Latest version is 1.7.6 from http://www.siibusinessproducts.com/usa/support/slpdiscsoft.asp

Pros - totally stable drivers and relatively clean and powerful UI for user software Cons - No "Paste and match style" function
