What is direct thermal printing and how do I choose a printer?
Monday, February 16, 2015 by Paul Kazlauskas
Direct thermal printing uses a thermal print head that applies heat to the surface being printed.

Because of this, direct thermal printers can’t print in color.Direct thermal images may fade over time, ...
Top 5 reasons why Doctor's Offices love the Confidential Patient Sign-In Book
Thursday, February 5, 2015 by Paul Kazlauskas
While a patient sign-in book is used at the front desk of many doctor’s offices, it is utilized to track much more than a patient’s arrival. The form protects the doctor as well.

"Tailgating" as a security breach
Monday, January 12, 2015 by Andrew Jones
In a recent survey, more than 70% of respondents said it was likely a security breach could occur at their facility as a result of “tailgating,” the practice of following an authorized person into a restricted area or past a certain checkpoint.
