No, a simple laserjet will do.  Connections are not mysterious.  Harder
to network to a printer, not sure why you would want to.  We tried, but
abandoned ship.  Just too easy to print to local printer....Great
instrument, but it's "Networking" capabilities are less than sum zero.
Basically, with a lot of gymnastics, you can make it send data to a
remote printer.  Big deal.   I vaguely understand why they won't allow
it to directly dump data into a server.  Given that the biometric data
leads to surgery, i.e. wrong data leads to wrong surgery, the liability
for computer "hiccups" just too great.  Ironically, however, in my 25+
years of doing and teaching biometry, most of the hiccups are human
error, lack of proofing, lack of knowledge, etc etc.   Not sure how a
computer could muck it up more....

We have an IOLMaster in our practice but i don't use it.  Are there
special considerations when choosing a printer?

 

Just curious for when our printer dies...

 

Thanks

We're using the Brother HL 5250DN.   Came from Zeiss.  They ought to
have a list of compatible printers.   This instrument CAN be networked,
but only for printing purposes, not to connect to a server....

Hi Pat

I can go through a WebEx of the software with you if you wish so you
know the work flow.  All you would need is to be in front of a computer
with a web browser.  Feel free to give me a call and we can set it
up...647-309-9271.  Another option is to go to the Clarity Website and
access the training modules
(http://www.claritymsi.com/us/retcamtraining.html).  Go to the RetCam
Training option (not the self-certification), select if you will be
using RetCam II or RetCam 3 and within each there is a module on the FA.
Take a look and then we can chat/WebEx.

 

Best regards,

Although we use the RetCam at our facility we do not have angiogram
capabilities on our unit.  On Friday I will be traveling to another
facility to do a RetCam FA on an equipped system.  Are the software
settings pretty obvious, starting the timer, etc?  Any tips or
suggestions?

 

Thanks,
