Label Performance

These are some simple guidelines which may be useful to get a barcode.

Follow proper maintenance procedure when replacing ribbon and label

The dotted markings should be correctly adjusted to prevent printed areas will printed on another page

Make sure to reduce the roll size to prevent the paper from rolling out; it is a good practice to make two rolls of labels from the big roll

Ribbons are not for reuse; reusing the used ribbon may lead to broken lines

Due to queus sometimes there is delay; try to refrain asking another reprint

If there is alternate response on the printed label, the label printer need calibration by IT department

Alternatives; share neighbors label printers


Remember : A label which is impossible to scan/read MRN/Visible accession number or name of patient will be rejected. If the printed barcode cannot be read by YOU manually, so are the pathology personnel in the lab!.
