Mail in a Minute This chapter explains how to use the “Key In Postage” mode. It’s the quick-
est and easiest way to run a piece of mail or print a postage tape.
For instructions on other available modes for running your mail, refer to
Determining the Correct Postage Mode section in Chapter 4 in this guide.
For tips on feeling light weight or bulky pieces of mail, flats and postcards,
or any mail that is easily damaged, refer the Tips on Feeding Mail section in
Chapter 4 in this guide.
Preparing Your Mail 1. Remove any onion skin/airmail type envelopes, Tyvek® envelopes,
envelopes that are thicker than 5/8” or any pieces of mail that are out-
side the limits specified for mailing materials - see Specifications in
Chapter 12 of this guide for details. Print the postage for this type of
mail on tape.
2. Sort the mail by envelope size and weight. If you are using the account-
ing feature, sort by account as well.
3. Shingle the envelopes
so they are slanted
slightly to the left as
shown in the picture
shown below.
Use this mode if:
• You know the postage amount.
• All envelopes are the same size.
• You are printing postage on postcards.
