Abstract:

Printing a code on a flexible medical solution container includes providing a flexible medical solution container which is at least partially light transmissive, storing in a memory circuit a code comprising numbers and translating the code comprising numbers using a bar code symbology, the bar code symbology defining dark areas and light areas. The method includes applying a light-reflective ink to the container based on the bar code symbology, wherein the light-reflective ink is applied in areas defined by the dark areas, and applying a light-absorbing ink to the container based on the bar code symbology, wherein the light-absorbing ink is applied in areas defined by the light areas. The applied light-reflective Ink and light-absorbing ink results in a code which represents a reversal of the dark and light areas defined in the bar code symbology.
