PROVIDE ScriptRx WITH
PERFECT PRESCRIPTION FOR
HARDWARE HEADACHE
ScriptRx Needed A Printer That Could Handle the
Demands of Busy Hospital Emergency Rooms … Citizen
Delivered the Solution
TORRANCE, Calif. – ScriptRx, the leader in electronic discharge systems
for the healthcare industry had a problem; its emergency room touchscreen
workstations were helping doctors create patient discharge instructions and
prescription forms more quickly and precisely than ever. The problem was
the workstation’s laser printers were breaking down due to the demands of
the heavy workload. No printer means no prescriptions and big headaches
for the attending physicians.
“The printers are the heart of our system
and they were breaking down far too
frequently, without them our workstations
were useless. We went looking for an answer
and found it at Citizen.”
Dr. Timothy G. Coffield, CEO of ScriptRx
“We have found that doctors have very little patience for disruptions in their
work,” said Dr. Timothy G. Coffield, CEO of ScriptRx. “The printers are the
heart of our system and they were breaking down far too frequently, without
them our workstations were useless. We went looking for an answer and
found it at Citizen.”
Coffield found the solution to his pr
S4000 thermal printer. This high-speed printer with selectable paper widths
up to 112 millimeters made it perfect for printing the larger amounts of data
equired for patient prescriptions. Its DMA (Direct Memory Access) means
r
text and graphics can download and print faster and its ability to handle
large capacity paper rolls means fewer roll changes. When it’s time to replace
the paper roll, easy drop-in loading makes the job a snap.
“Since we began using the CT-S4000 our service calls for broken hardware
have become practically non-existent,” added Coffield. “The doctors are
happy, the patients get processed faster and the pharmacists get a
prescription they can actually read.”
