SINGAPORE - October 22, 2004
SATO International Pte Ltd (SI), a holding company for SATO Corporation’s overseas sales offices, today announced that SATO’s proprietary software, Label Gallery, has officially passed the "Designed for Microsoft® Windows® XP" logo compliance test and has signed a Logo License Agreement with Microsoft®. SATO Label Gallery is featured under the Microsoft Windows® Catalog website—listing product details such as system requirements, Windows® version compatibility, region availability, and language availability. The Windows® Catalog highlights applications that have received the Designed for Microsoft® Windows® XP logo and compatible products.
The Designed for Windows® XP® logo programme aims to guarantee that software developers for Microsoft® Windows® XP sustain a level of quality and reliability that is expected by end users. Compliance testing evaluated the product stability of Label Gallery under the Windows® XP platform, the ability of related software or driver components to be effortlessly installed or removed, and basic experience with the software to be equivalent or enhanced after upgrading to future versions of Windows.
