Recommended print media for the Leica IP C
The use of other print media may result in unsatisfactory print quality and/or jamming of slides/
cassettes during the printing process!
If the slides/cassettes you are currently using are not listed above, please contact your local
Leica Microsystems’ representative.
The following cassettes have been successfully tested with the Leica IP C.
Cassettes of other manufacturers must be tested before use. The test must include the follow-
ing steps:
Mechanical compatibility with the instrument. Imprint quality.
Resistance of the ink against the reagents with which the imprinted cassettes come into con-
tact in the subsequent processes (refer also to Chapter 3.3.4).
Important!
Leica Biosystems assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any damages suffered as a conse-
quence of imprints of poor quality or imprints made with non-reagent-resistant ink.
