Abstract
A sample processing systemthat may be automated and methods are disclosed where a number of sample processing systems, such as stainer, may be connected to a number of separate full function computersthrough a stainer networkthat may be isolated from other communication traffic. A network configuration may permit scalability and addressability so that additional sample processing systems, additional separate full function computers, and additional other devices such as label printersmay be easily added to the system. One or more remote information linksmay be provided so that information transfer on a continuous or perhaps constant basis can be accommodated.
