This feature may be offered as a standard or optional feature and is not available on all Pitney Bowes solutions. Please contact your local account representative to determine if this option is accessible on your system.

Before using this weighing option:

Make sure each piece of mail weights at least as much as the amount specified as the differential trip weight during the installation of your mailing system. For more information, refer to the Set Up the Scale/ Select Rates:Diff Weigh Trip Weight section in Chapter 5 in this guide.

5.Place each piece, one at a time on the scale.

CAUTION: Make sure you center the mail on the scale and check to be sure it is not touching any other surface or object.

CAUTION: Do not lean on or touch the scale since the system will interpret this as a piece of mail and will deduct postage.
