A mount system for a monitoring device is disclosed. The mount system may include an extension arm attached to a device structure for housing the monitoring device. The mount system may include an alignment cup coupled to a support structure, wherein the extension arm is received through a through hole in a base of the alignment cup, and an oblong fitting attached to the extension arm opposite the device structure, wherein the oblong fitting is complementarily shaped to be received within the alignment cup to be received within the alignment cup, such that when the oblong fitting is received within the alignment cup, the device structure is aligned into a monitoring location. The mount system may include a dampening component between the support structure and the extension arm to bias the device structure into the monitoring location.

A novel printer is used to print and produce a pre-moistened label and the like on demand by an operator. The printer includes an outer casing; a media associated with the casing, and a printhead mounted in the casing for printing indicia and the like on an upper surface of the media. The media has a liquid activated adhesive on a lower surface thereof. A liquid delivery structure and a liquid application structure are associated with the casing and may be provided a separate modules which are attached to an existing printer. The liquid delivery structure supplies liquid to the liquid application structure and the liquid application structure applies the liquid to the adhesive coated lower surface of the media to pre-moisten the media before it is dispensed from the printer. The printhead prints the indicia and the like on the media prior to the stage where the adhesive coating on the media is moistened by the liquid application structure. A cutter is provided for severing the media to produce an individual label or the like. The cutter cuts the media prior to the application of liquid thereto by the liquid application structure. A demand button associated with the printer apparatus is provided for activating the printer so that it produces a label. When the demand button is depressed by an operator, the printer prints, cuts and wets the media to produce the individual label.
