We currently put the LIS label on the back of the slide. We very recently got Ventana to help us create a new label template that has the Ventana barcode and our 2D LIS label all printed on Ventana's Ebar printer.
We will start using the new labels in a few weeks. Ventana doesn't support the new labels but they did help our IT people figure out how to do it.
