The annual report is pretty basic, just requires some basic production record 
keeping along with any documented product issues.  The initial product report 
and any follow-up supplementary reports are a lot of work.

Hello Lauren,

As far as I am aware, the FDA only has reduced reporting and recordkeeping 
requirements if you incorporate a Class I laser into your product. Laser Notice 
54 gives some additional information, but the intention is that a computer 
manufacturer doesn't have to do extra work if they include a DVD drive made by 
another company. Your initial CDRH submittal may be simplified if the provider 
of your Class II laser can provide a test report or an existing Accession 
Number. The annual reporting requirements will likely still be a hassle.

John,

I tend to agree with you, but I've been fighting regulatory dragon's long 
enough to know there can sometimes be fine point details or 'special scenarios' 
I am not aware of. It never hurts only hurts a little to ask.

Little guidance, perhaps, because there is little reason to suppose 'no' is a 
possible answer.

I'm not sure this is the correct forum for this question....

Does incorporating a barcode scanner (that happens to be a class II laser 
product) into a piece of industrial machinery (e.g., for the purpose of reading 
identification tags on work pieces) that otherwise does not contain a laser 
result in a new, reportable laser product under US CDRH requirements?

I'm leaning towards 'yes', but I cannot find much guidance on the issue.
