ESPO II Slide Printer - Powerful, Fast & Simple Printing Directly On Slides

The SlideTrack ESPO II is a compact, easy-to-use microscope slide printer that simplifies labeling and minimizes errors. This intelligent thermal transfer printer revolutionizes your lab's workflow by printing clear, crisp, and durable text and barcodes directly on slides, which withstand the harsh chemicals used in slide preparation and staining. Its small footprint allows placement on the benchtop next to the microtome and water bath, maximizing sectioning efficiency.

Built-In Barcode Scanner Saves Space

The ESPO II is more than just another histology slide printer — it's purpose-built for maximum workflow efficiency during sectioning. It features a built-in barcode scanner on the front of the printer, saving valuable bench space by eliminating the need for a separate barcode scanner at the workstation.

This powerful scanner handles both linear and 2D barcodes, always within easy, ergonomic reach for technicians cutting sections and preparing slides.

In histology labs, barcode-based identification and tracking of specimens is now commonplace, streamlining workflows, boosting productivity and traceability, and minimizing or eliminating errors. An effective barcode tracking system relies on scannable barcodes on specimen slides. If barcodes fail to scan, workflows are disrupted, bottlenecks arise, and data integrity may be compromised.

The SlideTrack ESPO II Slide Printer offers an efficient solution for printing histology slides, enabling barcode identification and tracking right at the point where tissue is sectioned and slides are prepared. It prints text and barcodes directly onto slides, with images that resist harsh chemicals, reagents, and stains used in staining and preparation processes.
