Introduction

This document describes how to print specimen labels based on the format specified.

High level requirements are described below:

Information to be printed for specimen labels should be configurable per class and type of specimen, and type of label. The type of label could be Cap+Side (used for vials) or Slide.
If Firm/Institute uses multiple printers at various labs. In order to decide the printer to which to forward the request, the workstation IP should be configurable.

Based on these requirements, the parameters that decide the label format to be printed are configured, having the following parameters:

Parameter	Definition
Specimen Class	Class of the specimen Permissible Values: molecular, fluid, cell, tissue, any
Specimen type	Type of the specimen Permissible Values: 'any' or any specimen type of the class specified in same row
Label type	This could be cap+ slide or side. This parameter and the specimen type define the information that needs to go in the label. This will help user to configure based on label physical dimensions.
Data on the label	Information that needs to be included in the label based on the specimen class/type and label type
Printer	Name of the printer where the request has to be forwarded to.
Workstation IP	IP address of the machine from where the print request will come and this decides to which printer the request has to be forwarded to. It can be specified in wild card format like grouping e.g all IPs starting with 128 will have same rule all IPs starting with 128.3. will have same rule

Below are the APIs present in the application for print rules:
