About Printing Postage Tapes

The DM1000 is designed to use gummed tape or a special pressure sensitive adhesive tape made exclusively for it. You cannot print postage tapes in the Seal Only, W-O-W, or Weigh First Piece modes.

To print one tape, you simply press the Tape key instead of placing mail on the deck.

To print more than one tape, use the numeric keys to type in the number of tapes you want, then press the Tape key. The tapes exit into the stacker on the right side of the mailing system. You can request up to 50 tapes at a time.

To moisten gummed tape, move the “wet/dry” tape lever up.

Wet tapes exit one at a time. The machine pauses for you to remove each wet tape before it prints and ejects another one.

If you do not remove wet tape within the required time, the machine stops. Remove the tape and press the Start button to continue.

If you use wet tapes make sure you have enough E-Z Seal® in the bottle.

For dry tapes or pressure-sensitive tapes, move the “wet/dry” tape lever down.

WARNING! Use only fresh rolls of Pitney Bowes tape to avoid distortion or jams in the mechanism and possible loss of postage.

Do not lift any of the covers on the mailing system while the system is printing or the system stops printing.
