PRODUCT INFORMATION

Cassette and slide printer from Micron is a dual-purpose thermal transfer printer designed to print directly onto embedding cassettes and glass slides. This instrument eliminates handwritten labels that can smudge or fall off during processing. This cassette and slide printer is widely considered the best solution for positive patient identification in histology laboratories.

The printer uses thermal transfer technology that fuses ink into the plastic or glass surface, producing text and barcodes that withstand xylene, alcohol, and formalin. It can print on standard frosted-end slides and all standard embedding cassettes. Micron's cassette and slide printer is a top rated instrument for laboratories seeking LIS integration and error reduction. The printer connects via USB or Ethernet for seamless data transfer.

The best cassette and slide printer from Micron features a 300 dpi print resolution for crisp, scannable barcodes. It prints up to 6 slides per minute or 10 cassettes per minute, keeping pace with accessioning. The user-friendly software allows batch printing and template design. For laboratories transitioning to lean workflows, this printer is one of the best investments for eliminating transcription errors. The compact design fits on any laboratory benchtop.

Micron's cassette and slide printer includes a barcode scanner for verification and software for LIS integration. The printer is backed by comprehensive warranty and technical support.
