Abstract:
Fixtures for use with medical device label printing systems are disclosed. An example fixture may include a housing designed to be coupled to a printing device. The housing may have an input region for receiving a media (e.g., that may include a backing portion and a label portion) and a return region. A separating member may be disposed within the housing. The separating member may be designed for separating the label portion from the backing portion. The separating member may be designed to shift between a first configuration where the separating member engages the media in order to separate the label portion from the backing portion and a second configuration where the separating member is positioned away from engagement with the media. The fixture may also include an actuator for shifting the separating member between the first configuration and the second configuration.

Claim (Index 18):
A method for quality assurance of printed medical device labels, the method comprising:\n attaching a fixture to a printing device, the fixture comprising:\n a housing having an input region for receiving a media from the printing device, a scanning device for scanning the media, an encoder, and a return region for sending at least a portion of the media back to the printing device, \n wherein the media includes a backing portion and label portion, \n a separating member disposed within the housing, the separating member being designed for separating the label portion from the backing portion, \n wherein the separating member is designed to shift between a first configuration where the separating member engages the media in order to separate the label portion from the backing portion and a second configuration where the separating member is positioned away from engagement with the media, and \n an actuator for shifting the separating member between the first configuration and the second configuration; \n positioning the separating member in the first configuration; advancing the media from the printing device into the housing; scanning the media; and shifting the separating member from the first configuration to the second configuration.
