**Situation**  
Describe your problem here: I want to change the look of the printouts prescription, Print Notes, etc. It has no letterhead, no characters, tasteless. There must be a way to customize it. There should be a section for lab orders, imaging order, referral orders with a print button that will lead to printing a precustomized lab orders, imaging orders, or evern prescriptions—SPOOLED directly from the clinical notes. Would that not be SMART and efficient?

If someone can direct me to it, I will spend time doing it. BUT so far it appears that the whole OPENEMR community function by not printing a single laboratory order, nor an x-ray order. Do people here do electronic note and fill out lab order paper? And the prescriptons look DOWDY.

**OpenEMR Version**  
I’m using OpenEMR version 5.

**Browser** :  
I’m using: Firefox.

**Operating System**  
I’m using: Window 7 and 10. Logmein Hamachi and Neorouter for VPN.

**Logs**  
Did you check the logs? Was there anything pertinent in them? Paste them here (surround with three backticks (```) for readability

The eye form reports have a mechanism to add logos and headers for PDFs of visits and vision prescriptions. I also recall writing a similar thing for patient statements. I believe they are in the base install. Those would be a good place for you to start if you plan to make a central “letterhead” feature that can used broadly across openEMR. Looking forward to seeing this.

Thank you. I am beginning to look at the program notepads now.  
How do I suppress some printed information. The Rx print from CAMOS contains on header: CAMOS and the http:// directory which will reveal the port # which I want to remain secret.
