Postal Rate Update

Postal rates change periodically by the USPS®. If new rates are avail- able, you can download them quickly and easily directly from the Pitney Bowes Data Center. The new rates are normally available for download at least seven days before the effective date. Once the effective date has been reached (or passed), you have to download the new rates.

The display tells you when a Rate Change update is complete. It also tells you if the update is immediate or takes effect at a later date by listing the new date.

iNOTE: If you decide to take the update and the rates go into effect in the future, you will not be printing postage at the new rates until the effective date is reached.

If the rate for a First Class letter has changed and is effective imme- diately, a screen displays showing the present preset postage and asks you if you want to reset the normal preset postage. Press Yes/ Enter. A screen displays for you to enter the new rate.

iNOTE: When a Rate Change update takes place it may also af- fect other presets you have set in your mailing machine. You must check all your presets to insure that they conform to the new rates. See Chapter 7, System Options for instructions on changing preset values.

As part of downloading the new rates, we recommend that you print the last rates update report (see figure below) when prompted.

 

 

System will begin using new rates on the date effective.
