Hi Teri, And welcome to San Diego!!!!!!!! :-)
My experience is, that you cannot leave the slides with the Ventana labels sitting in xylene for too long before coverslipping. I believe it is just how these labels are and doesn't have much to do with the coverslipper itself.

I have used a Leica and had only very occasionally a dropped slide. Is this your experience as well? Are there other units that would work well for this? Feel free to contact me off list if you need to. Thanks!
