I don't think I'm going to like what I hear, but let me shut up and listen for a little bit.

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.

The Ventana equipment requires the use of Ventana slide labels. You can't just stick your LIS slide label on the slide and expect the Ventana equipment to read the slide barcode and perform the required stain (yes, I am assuming an interface is in place). On the other hand, have any of you either: 1. placed the LIS slide label on the back side of the slide, or 2. Overlapped the LIS slide label with the Ventana slide label such that you can still read both the LIS and the Ventana barcodes. I have heard conflicting answers from multiple Ventana representatives as to whether one or both of the aforementioned mechanisms work. I appreciate your time.
