Label Printing Initialization

Slide Labels

The SLIDE LABELS button is displayed on the INITIALIZE screen and it is used to access the
DESIGN SLIDE LABEL screen for configuring and adjusting slide label printing.

Slide Labels with Bar Codes

The Autostainer Plus adds a Bar Code identification to each slide label. The identification is
assigned under the Instrument ID portion of the INITIALIZE screen.

NOTE: Slide labels are printed from the print button on the PROGRAMMING GRID or the PRINT
SLIDE LABELS screen accessed by the NEXT button in the PROGRAMMING GRID. Do not print
labels while the Autostainer Plus is operating.

1. Select the SLIDE LABELS button. The DESIGN SLIDE LABEL screen appears with three

fields displayed representing the three lines of information to be printed on each slide
label.


NOTE: Each field offers 10 options: Slide ID, Case #, User, Primary 1, Primary 2,
Pretreatment, Today’s Date, Run Name, Doctor and Tissue. The information printed for
each field is the data entered in the SLIDE INFORMATION screen and appearance of the
Programming Grid.

NOTE: If Slide ID, Doctor or Tissue is selected to print on the label, then these items
must be selected from the OPTIONS button in the INITIALIZE screen. If these Program
Grid items are not selected from the OPTIONS button in the INITIALIZE screen, then
these fields will not be present in the SLIDE INFORMATION screen.

2. Move the mouse pointer over the down arrow to the right of the information box and press

the left mouse button. A list box with the 10 options is displayed.
