Dear Sandy,
  I either use a #1 pencil or a Sakura Pigma
Pen.  Let the ink dry well before placing in
a solution.   I have noticed some cassettes
are better than others at keeping their
numbers on.
-Sarah, Texas A&M


Histo-workers,
	We've had problems lately with our cassettes losing or fading the
surgical numbers after processing...  I'm not sure if it's the cassettes
or the pencils and markers.
We've tried...
	*Official "Tissue-Tek" pencils, (they were the worst, believe it
or not)

	*Regular #2 pencils  (some brands work better than others)

	*Secureline markers (which STILL fade and tend to dry out much
too quickly)

What have you-all found to work best?    Many thanks,  Sandosis

PS Please don't tell me to contact the vendor, been there, done that,
yadda, yadda,       yadda.   (Can't switch vendors either, we "have a
contract")
