Abstract

An apparatus for applying information to a medical slide or histology cassette has an ink jet printer for printing a printing medium directly onto the slide cassette. The printing medium or the ink is placed onto the slide or cassette so that the resulting printed data is impervious against removal or damage during subsequent handling or treatment of the slide or cassette.
