  • Patent number: 12216950
    Abstract: Example methods, systems, and apparatuses for verifying a printed indicium are provided. An example method may include receiving a captured image of a print media comprising the printed indicium; extracting a quiet zone grade portion from the captured image, where the quiet zone grade portion includes a printed indicium area of the printed indicium and at least one quiet zone area adjacent to the printed indicium area; in response to receiving a user input providing an overwrite quiet zone requirement indication and determining that the at least one quiet zone area does not satisfy at least one quiet zone requirement, causing at least one of adjusting the at least one quiet zone requirement to at least one reduced quiet zone requirement or adding at least one additional quiet zone area to the at least one quiet zone area.

  • Patent number: 12015741
    Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to printing apparatuses and methods of operating the same. In various embodiments, a method of operating a printing apparatus to generate to generate an alert signal corresponding to a detected operating condition associated with the printing apparatus comprises selectively operating a drive component to generate an alert signal corresponding to a detected operating condition defined by the printing apparatus, the alert signal being defined by a vibration of the printing apparatus, wherein the drive component is configured to be operably engaged with a print media disposed within the printing apparatus such that the operation of the drive component causes a corresponding movement of the print media along a printing path defined by the printing apparatus; and wherein an operation of the drive component is defined at least in part by a rotation of the drive component in one or more rotational directions about a central axis.
