Technical Specifications

Number of Users: Unlimited.

SpecVet can support an unlimited number of workstations and users.  SpecVet was designed with the multi-location business model in mind. 

 

Laser/Sheet Printers:

SpecVet uses the print drivers on the computer’s operating system.  We do not require special printers or print drivers.  Generally, we recommend network printers. 
 

Label Printers:

We require use of high-quality Zebra label printers that are networked to your LAN.  We do not support Dymo or other USB based label printers. 
For our all of our standard label printing we use the GK-Series (or similar) label printers
For collar ID labels we use: Zebra ZD410 printer
 

Fax/Email Server: 

SpecVet utilized a cloud-based email/fax server.  We will set up an account on your behalf.  The cost of this service varies based on your fax volume, but for mid-sized hospitals it will typically cost $2000 per year.  The benefits are: 
  • No additional hardware for you to purchase or support 
  • No additional phone lines or phone charges 
  • The overall cost of ownership and use of this cloud-based solution is lower than any in house solutions 
This service is not designed to be used for incoming faxes or emails, you will need other standard solutions. 
 

Scanners:

For our DMS (document management solution) we only support specific Canon Networked Scanners. Presently the imageFORMULA ScanFront 400 Networked Document Scanner is the shipping model. The benefits of this scanner are: 
  • Networkable - can be located in one or many locations and does not tie up the use of a computer 
  • Double sided scanning - with a single pass (no mechanical  duplexing) both sided of a document can be read 
  • Feed Detection - can detect and report errors in paper feeding to ensure all documents are scanned and archived correctly 
 

Workstation/Server Computer Requirements

SpecVet can be run on the Macintosh, Windows & iOS platforms. Most of your clinic’s computers should be able to be utilized for SpecVet. Specific Technical Specifications for Workstations and Servers can be found in the link below.
 
 

Purchasing Hardware

 It is highly recommended that prior to any hardware purchases you coordinate these purchases with  SpecVet technical support to avoid any potential incompatibilities or issues. We will assist you in the purchasing of the appropriate hardware. 
All hardware recommendations are subject to change without notice.
