[Histonet] Leica coverslipper again and does anyone like the Sakura stainer?

[Lisa Brenner]

Hello Everyone,
  So far I've been asking about the Leica stainer and coverslipper.
Does anyone have the Sakura stainer with the attached coverslipper? What
are your likes/dislikes with this system? Any advantages file vs. glass
coverslips? 
 
Back to Leica....does anyone run both H&E and cytology slides, either
non-gyn or paps at the same time on the Leica  ST5020? Does it delay any
of the slides coming out?
 
There has been concern by our Cytotechs that with the Leica glass
coverslipper slides have to be dried prior to running on the cytec
imager. Does anyone know about this? How long do you dry them? Any
problems with cornflaking?
 
Thanks for all your help. It so nice to hear from people who actually
use all this equipment.
