Envelope Guidance

NOTE: Always run a test print (at $0.00 postage) before using Custom Messag- ing to ensure proper placement on an envelope. Custom Messaging prints a custom message or other information directly to the left of your postage meter imprint and any Postal Endorsements or Inscriptions on the envelope. This mes- sage does not print on the left margin of the envelope, nor does your mailing system allow for placement of the custom message on your envelope. There- fore, before printing a mailrun using this feature, you should always process a Test Print with ZERO POSTAGE to ensure that the full message is properly positioned on the envelope.

Drop Shipment Endorsement

NOTE: In most cases, the Drop Shipment Authorization is printed using an Endorsement purchased from the Pitney Bowes Online Store. The Custom Mes- saging feature of the DM Series™ may satisfy USPS requirements for Drop Shipment endorsements on your mailings. However, the application and endorsement format must be authorized locally by the USPS. Under current Postal guidelines, the local business mail entry management of the USPS must approve the application or endorsement format for mail deposited as “Drop Shipment Authorization.” Contact the USPS directly for further guidance.
