The equipment is fully compatible with both adhesive slides and frosted slides.
-
16.Do laser printers require ribbons or ink cartridges?
Laser printers for embedding cassettes or microscope slides do not require ribbons or ink cartridges. Labsim’s laser printers are consumable-free instruments characterized by high stability, fast printing speeds, and clear, legible text.
-
17.Does cold laser marking produce smoke or dust? Are there accompanying exhaust filtration and purification systems?
Cold laser marking involves inscribing information onto cassettes or slides via a non-contact laser, so it does not produce smoke. While a small amount of dust may be generated during the engraving of the slide surface, Labsim provides matching exhaust filtration and purification systems for every cold laser marker model to effectively handle the trace amounts of dust produced during the process.
-
18.Is the text printed by the pathology cassette printer resistant to xylene, absolute ethanol, H&E staining, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) immersion?
Yes, the text printed by Labsim’s pathology cassette printers is resistant to xylene, absolute ethanol, H&E staining, and IHC immersion; the print remains intact and ensures long-term preservation.
-
19.What is the resolution (DPI) of the Slide laser printer?
The Slide laser printer has a resolution of 2500 DPI, ensuring clear printing.
-
20.Are the barcodes printed by the slide laser printer clear? What is the recognition rate?
The barcodes printed by the slide laser printer are extremely clear, with a 100% recognition rate; the printed surface can be scanned and recognized in one second.
-
21.Can the depth/intensity of the text printed by the slide laser printer be adjusted? Is the intensity related to the printing speed?
Yes, the intensity of the text can be adjusted, and it is related to the printing speed. For example, at higher printing speeds, the text may appear slightly lighter, but this does not affect readability; the printed text remains clearly visible.
-
22.13.Can Labsim laser printers print on standard embedding cassettes or microscope slides that lack a special laser-reactive coating?
Labsim’s laser printer can print information on standard embedding cassettes and microscope slides (even those without a special laser-reactive coating); however, printing on consumables that do feature a laser-reactive coating yields even sharper results. Currently, the market prices for these two types of consumables are comparable.
-
23.Does Labsim’s laser printer require specialized coated consumables?
Labsim’s laser printer is compatible with standard consumables available on the market, so there is no requirement to use specialized coated slides.
