4 Running Mail

Mode:

Differential

Weighing

A purchaseable option. Not in all systems.

Use the Differential Weighing mode if:

•You have mail that cannot be processed in the W-O-W mode.

•You have mixed mail of different sizes and weights.

•You have an attached scale.

When using differential weighing, you place all the mail on the scale at once, then remove each piece, one at a time. The system calculates the postage for each piece of mail as you remove it from the scale and applies the postage to the piece as it goes through the mailing system.

Each piece of mail must weigh at least as much as the Differential Weigh Trip Weight that was previously set. See Scales/Rates, Differential Weigh Trip Weight in 5 - Mailing System Setup. If you remove a piece of mail which does not meet the minimum weight, the scale does not recognize the removal of the piece of mail.

If you mistakenly remove more than one piece of mail, put all of it back on the scale. If you only put one piece back on, the system will not print the correct postage.

How to Use Differential Weighing

1.Set the scale to zero by pressing the Menu key, then selecting Zero Scale.

2.Press the Class key to choose a class if you have not done so. If more than one carrier is available for the class you select, use the right arrow key to compare the rates.

3.Select Account and follow the prompts. (For further details, see Selecting/Deselecting an Account to Print Postage.)

4.If printing on a piece of mail, press the Seal key and select your sealing option.

If printing on a piece of tape, move the tape lever up for wet tape and down for dry or pressure-sensitive tape.

5.Press the Mode key.

6.If the Differential Weighing Mode is not listed, select Weighing Options.

7.Select Differential Weighing. The system prompts you to place the mail on the scale.

8.Place the mail on the scale. Once you place the mail on the scale, the system displays the following prompt:

Print tapes automatically On or Off

9.To automatically print a tape when you remove each piece of mail, select On.

To print on a piece of mail, select Off. Remove each piece of mail
