Printers

Laboratory printers play a critical role in specimen identification, traceability, and workflow accuracy. Medical Equipment Source offers reliable slide printers and labeling solutions designed for histology and pathology labs. We offer solutions for labs that need clear, consistent printing on microscope slides and related consumables. Our equipment supports efficient lab operations while reducing identification errors and supporting integration with existing laboratory information systems.

Laboratory Printers for Histology and Pathology Labs

Accurate specimen identification is essential for patient safety, traceability, and efficient lab operations. Medical Equipment Source (MES) provides new and remanufactured laboratory printers. Our printers are designed to support reliable slide printing and cassette labeling across clinical, research, and specialty laboratory environments.

Our selection includes dedicated slide printers and microscope slide printers that deliver clear, high-resolution labeling directly onto microscope slides and related consumables. Each system is evaluated to ensure dependable performance, long-term value, and seamless integration into existing lab workflows. If you are starting a new lab, replacing old equipment, or expanding, MES can help. We can guides you in choosing the right printing solution for your needs.

Selecting the Right Laboratory Printer for Your Workflow

Choosing the right laboratory printer requires careful consideration of specimen volume, labeling requirements, workflow speed, and available space. Slide printers support accurate specimen identification by producing durable, legible labels directly on microscope slides, helping reduce manual handling and labeling errors.

The right system directly impacts traceability, workflow efficiency, and error reduction. This is very important in busy histology and pathology labs. Consistent slide printing helps with processes like staining, imaging, and case review.

Medical Equipment Source works closely with lab managers, pathologists, and procurement teams to match printer capabilities with real-world needs. We help evaluate factors such as print resolution, throughput capacity, ease of operation, label durability, and LIS integration with existing laboratory information systems. Our guidance helps laboratories make informed decisions that support accuracy and long-term operational reliability.

Printing Applications Across Laboratory Environments

Laboratory printers support accurate specimen identification across a wide range of settings:

  • Physician-Owned and Independent Laboratories rely on dependable slide printers that support daily workflows while minimizing identification errors.
  • Hospitals and Large Laboratory Networks depend on high-throughput printers to maintain consistency and traceability across large specimen volumes.
  • University and Research Laboratories use flexible printing solutions to support teaching, research, and evolving experimental workflows.
  • Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Companies require reliable labeling systems to support research, development, and quality control processes.
  • Veterinary, Industrial, and Specialty Laboratories benefit from adaptable printers that accommodate varied specimen types and labeling needs.
  • Government Laboratories operate in regulated environments that require dependable printing solutions with consistent, validated performance.

Across all environments, MES helps laboratories select printing equipment that supports accurate identification and efficient lab operations.

New and Remanufactured Laboratory Printers

Medical Equipment Source offers both new and remanufactured laboratory printers to meet a range of performance needs and budgets. New systems provide modern printing technology, high-resolution output, and long-term durability for laboratories seeking advanced automation and connectivity.

Remanufactured printers are carefully restored, tested, and validated to meet strict performance standards. These systems offer a cost-effective option while maintaining consistent print quality and dependable operation for daily laboratory use.
