Re: [Histonet] compatibility of Thermo slide printers with Leica cassette printer
Hello Sandy, we use a Leica Cassette and Slide Printer which are both connected to a database in which we organize all our specimens and print cassettes and slides, so it is not necessary to read the barcodes from cassettes to print them on the slides. However, there is of course not much space for barcode on the cassettes, but in most cases we can read the barcode with our smart phones. I do not know if the barcodes of Leica and Thermo are compatible. I think you have to use the same type of barcode in both machines, so that the other one can read it.

RE: [Histonet] compatibility of Thermo slide printers with Leica cassette printer
We use both the Printmate and slidemate from Thermo. We also have used the Leica IPS for slides. The biggest thing to remember is when using these items is if you are passing them through your APLIS or the printers own proprietary software. Either was you are going to have to look at this with a critical eye. I would suggest using 2D barcodes for both items. 1D tend to increase as the data increases. But this hold true for all barcodes you place on either a slide or cassette. The main thing is the symobology you need in order to produce the barcode. There are several symoblogies out there to use. We currently use the Datamatrix one. This is all driven by either the APLIS or the database you are using. -Original Message- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Morphisto GmbH Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2012 11:14 PM To: histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: Re: [Histonet] compatibility of Thermo slide printers with Leica cassette printer Hello Sandy, we use a Leica Cassette and Slide Printer which are both connected to a database in which we organize all our specimens and print cassettes and slides, so it is not necessary to read the barcodes from cassettes to print them on the slides.

RE: [Histonet] compatibility of Thermo slide printers with Leica cassette printer
I have used the code printed cassettes, but with QR codes. I have seen the slide printing only but not in use (yet). In theory any reader should be able to read the standard symbologies. But since they are different vendors, you might contact them directly about compatability for transfer of patient ID data. Maybe middleware is an option if they are not directly compatible. ,Joelle Weaver MAOM, HTL (ASCP) QIHC Date: Tue, 29 May 2012 15:12:07 -0500 From: sandra.harris...@va.gov To: histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: [Histonet] compatibility of Thermo slide printers with Leica cassette printer 1) Does anyone have a Leica Cassette Printer on which they are printing 2-Dimensional barcodes? 2) Is anyone using a Thermo slide printer, with bar code reader, to read cassettes printed off of a Leica Cassette Printer with 2-D bar codes?
