Custom Messaging enables you to enter text at the Control Center which can print directly on envelopes as they pass through the mailing system. Custom messages can be saved in the memory of the system, and recalled whenever appropriate to print. In the Control Center, this feature is shown as “Text Entries.”

IMPORTANT: You should be familiar with the USPS regulations and standards relating to custom message printing and envelope usage for guidance concern- ing appropriate content, format, and other usage considerations

Operating speed is reduced slightly to accommodate printing operation.

The Custom Messaging capability of your DM Series™ mailing system has several applications. Use it for all outgoing mail that does not have a pre- printed custom message such as Business Reply Mail. Even if you use a pre-printed custom message on outgoing mail, this capability can be used to define a department or section of your organization for “return mail.” By implementing this as a process, undeliverable mail can bypass the Mail Center, and be returned directly to the department that generated the mail- ing.

IMPORTANT: Custom Messaging requires an envelope at least 6 3/4" long to print effectively. See Envelope Guidance in this section regarding testing of your envelopes before running.
