Checklist

Make sure your mailing system is plugged into a properly grounded power receptacle. Always follow the safety precautions in Chapter 1, Introduction.

Check the level of sealing solution in the moistener. If you need to add sealing solution, refer to Chapter 7, Maintenance.

If you plan on printing tape sheets, make sure you've got an adequate supply. See Chapter 9, Supplies and Options for ordering tape sheets.

Check that you have enough postage for your mail run. Press Funds key to view your current balance.
