Streamline Your Lab Data Management with RedTitan’s Virtual Printer

Are you utilizing a HACH TL2360, TL3250 or a similar laboratory water turbidimeter? If so, you might still be printing results and manually entering data, a time-consuming and error-prone process. Fortunately, there’s a way to enhance your workflow efficiency and accuracy—by incorporating RedTitan’s Virtual Printer into your lab operations.

The Challenge of Manual Data Entry

For many labs, the process of printing test results and then entering them manually into a digital system is standard practice. This method, while traditional, comes with several downsides:

  • Time-Consuming: Manually entering data takes significant time, which could be better spent on more critical tasks.
  • Error-Prone: Human error is inevitable, and even small mistakes in data entry can lead to significant issues in data analysis and reporting.
  • Inefficient Data Management: Printed results need physical storage, and retrieving old data can be cumbersome.

Introducing RedTitan’s Virtual Printer

RedTitan’s Virtual Printer offers an innovative solution to these challenges by seamlessly capturing printed output on a Windows PC in PDF, Text, or CSV format. This advancement means you can maintain your existing workflow while significantly improving efficiency and accuracy.

Searchable PDF

Transform any printed image file or electronic document into a searchable PDF.

Have you ever attempted to search through a PDF or attempted to ‘cut & paste’ text from it, only to discover that it’s merely an image with no actual text? The result is having to manually re-type the desired text or, even worse, struggling to locate the correct document initially.

RedTitan’s OCR solution for documents enables the creation of PDF files with searchable text from nearly any print file or pre-existing electronic document. By opening your file in the RedTitan Document Processor and utilizing its advanced OCR function, you can effortlessly obtain a text-searchable PDF.

This task can be performed manually for occasional document processing or set up as an automated process for multiple conversions.

Take it a step further and generate an indexable PDF, allowing for easy storage and retrieval within an industry-standard indexing system. No indexing system? It’s not a problem – utilize the RedTitan nQ indexer.

Electronic Medical Records

(GE CARESCAPE ™ – Patient monitoring systems and the RedTitan Virtual Printer)

The Royal Sussex County Hospital is an acute teaching hospital in Brighton, England. Together with the Princess Royal Hospital, it is administered by the Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The Royal Sussex County Hospital uses a wide range of GE patient monitoring equipment including CARESCAPE™ monitors which use locally attached printers or can route print via the GE central control station. Their requirement was to route crucial documents to departmental printers as well as reduce the overall paper and print costs by allowing all documents that would have been printed to be saved as an Electronic Medical Record in PDF format on the hospital’s LAN. A key requirement of this was for the PDF files to be named with the correct patient information, i.e. their name, ward and bed number etc so that they could be filed electronically and accessed simply at later appointments.

RedTitan was able to supply a solution that enabled the patient monitoring devices to route its print to a windows Server running the RedTitan Virtual Printer software. Users of the CARESCAPE™ monitors would just print as if the real printer was attached. The RedTitan Virtual Printer would automatically manage both receiving the documents, printing to departmental printers where required as well as converting to PDF, naming and storing remotely.

Documents that would traditionally be printed 1 page at a time are now concatenated onto a single electronic document, making storage and retrieval much simpler and more efficient.

The RedTitan Virtual printer is able to capture and process documents intended for a printer from virtually any piece of medical equipment or central control station.
