Description
The Owen Mumford Autolet Impression is the Autolet lancing device for capillary blood sampling, with nine depth settings that personalize the draw for different skin types and sampling needs. It primes automatically when the lancet is inserted, and its Comfort Zone Technology tip uses eight raised pressure points to send a comfort signal that helps mask fingerstick pain.
- Nine Depth Settings – Depth adjusts across nine settings, so the sample suits glucose, HbA1c and other capillary tests.
- Auto Priming – The device primes as the lancet is inserted, removing a setup step from every test.
- Comfort Zone Technology – Eight raised dots at the tip stimulate nerve endings to help reduce the pain of the stick.
About This Autolet Impression Lancing Device
Capillary sampling fails in two ways, too little blood for the test or enough pain that patients avoid testing. Adjustable depth addresses the first failure by matching penetration to the patient, from pediatric skin to callused working fingers. Comfort Zone Technology addresses the second, pressing eight raised points around the site so the brain registers pressure more strongly than the lancet.
The device works with Unilet lancets and releases the used lancet through a simple mechanism for safe disposal. Owen Mumford supports the comfort claim with a single-blind randomized crossover study comparing blood volume and pain perception in capillary sampling. The current Autolet range continues this device class with the same depth and comfort technology.
Features and Benefits

Why Choose This Lancing Device
A lancing device is a daily use product for monitoring patients, so small frictions in priming, depth and disposal compound into skipped tests. This device removes the priming step, personalizes depth and builds pain masking into the tip.
- More Completed Tests – Comfortable, correctly sized samples mean fewer failed sticks and fewer avoided tests.
- Faster Routine – Auto priming on insertion trims a step from every single sampling event.
- Patented Comfort Tip – Comfort Zone Technology is unique to Owen Mumford lancing products, a differentiator over plain depth adjustable devices.
Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
Which lancets does this device use?
The device works with Unilet lancets. It fits the wide variety of lancets in the Autolet system, and the range leaflet covers pairings.
How do the depth settings help?
Nine settings adjust penetration for different skin types and blood volume needs. Users can personalize the draw for tests from glucose to HbA1c.
Does the device need manual priming?
No, it primes automatically when the lancet is inserted. A simple release mechanism then ejects the lancet after use.
What is Comfort Zone Technology?
Eight raised pressure points at the tip stimulate nerve endings around the site. The manufacturer describes that signal as helping to mask the weaker pain sensation from the lancet.
Is the Impression the current model name?
Impression is the established name for this Autolet device class with nine settings and Comfort Zone Technology. The technology and depth system continue in the current Autolet range.
Who uses this device?
People monitoring blood glucose at home and clinicians taking capillary samples. It suits frequent testing where comfort drives adherence.
