We did the programming of the Indiana label on the Citizen CLP 521 at Howard. Indiana's roll has an unusual landscape layout, so you have to use printer control commands to print in the proper direction (Citizen printers emulate a Datamax). Most states use a portrait orientation so you might be able to use the THERMAL YES footnote and layout the label in the picture.
Citizen was kind enough to send me a printer, so I was able to write the prescription fragment report and test on the local printer, which was convenient.

We are not LIVE yet, HOWEVER, it is working in test. We are only waiting on POE in EDM. We are using a Citizen Printer, and ROLL prescriptions, it prints ONE at a time and CUTS it off. Indiana has very strict regulations regarding prescription blanks, and the company we are using has been very helpful. Just send me an email, and I would gladly send you the Word document describing the printer, paper and what we are doing. tom Tom Silver Clinical Staff Pharmacist Howard Regional Health System Phone (765)-453-8524 fax (765)-864-6707 Main Pharmacy phone (765)-453-8433 Main Pharmacy fax (765)-453-8141 No trees were killed in the sending of this message.

We have started printing prescriptions in our ED's and are finding that the paper (that can't be copied or faxed) is very expensive. We are using HP LaserJets right now, so we are using a full sheet of expensive paper for each prescription. (I realize that we can put multiple prescriptions on a piece of paper, but it is still very costly.) I have seen some small printers that look like they would be well suited for this if you are able to obtain paper for them that can't be "duplicated." Thanks in advance!
