Fred Dispense
Issue
Scripts for medications with long directions are printing over two labels.
Cause
Long directions setting not properly configured in Fred Dispense dispense options.
Resolution
- From the Setup menu, select Dispense Options.
- Click the Label Printer tab.
- In the Long Directions Print field type:
[C] for Condensed
[8] for 8 lines per inch
[B] for both condensed printing and 8 lines per inch
[N] to disable long directions printing - Click Save and test another label with long directions. Directions will now be smaller and more condensed.
Smaller condensed directions may make it more difficult for the patient to read.
