Starting Report Printouts
Most patient reports can be printed by selecting Main Setup then Reports (or the Print Reports
SmartKey) and then selecting the report name in the top half of the
Reports menu. Report names are
shown only for reports that have been correctly set up.
Data from the time of the print request is printed, even if the print job is delayed in the printer queue.
Your monitor can also be set up to automatically print all reports when a matching printer is available.
To set this up
1 Select Main Setup, then select Reports.
2 Select Auto Print Dbs.
–
Always will print all reports when a matching printer is available.
–
Never will print no reports automatically; all reports stored in the database must be manually
sent to the printer. See “Checking Report Status and Printing Manually” on page 240.
Printout Location
Depending on availability, reports can be printed:
• on printers connected to the Information Center,
• to an IntelliVue XDS Application print service,
• to an external PC-based print server with Philips server software,
• into the print database.
Print jobs stored in the database are automatically printed when a print device with a matching paper
size becomes available.
Print jobs in the print database are not deleted after a patient discharge. A new patient can be
admitted and their reports are saved in addition to the previous reports. Always admit your patient so
that reports can be clearly assigned to a patient.
