A label with a black drug name, blue strength and red cautions as information packets or boxes on a white label helps the brain differentiate between this important information.
Kenneth Latta, BS, RPh, manager of a major university hospital Pharmacy Production and Packaging center, introduced the Toshiba TEC CB-416 more than 4 years ago:
“The TEC 416 is a workhorse of a printer. The only significant downtime we experienced was when someone removed a screw and lost it!
“The versatility of the print program and the ultimate readability of the labels has veritably eliminated ‘unreadable labels’ as a cause of error in our health system. The TEC ON-Demand Color Printer has paid for itself many times over in error prevention.
“The color information packets add safety beyond barcodes. As time pressures the frontline staffs in our hospitals and natural disasters such as hurricanes knockout our technical capabilities, it becomes imperative to provide both machine and human readable labels that are optimized for complete and correct information transfer.”
