Dear Hazel,
     I am more familiar with Good Laboratory Practices than CAP, but the question seems to me to ask: Is there paperwork people make out for the instruments on a 
daily basis?  All the years I've worked in labs, I know how much the Feds love to see tons of paperwork. (This despite the claim that they want to reduce everybody's 
paperwork. Go fig, eh.)
     Take care.
     Sincerely,
     Paul Lockwood
