Defining Custom Preset Values

When creating a custom preset, the mailing system will prompt you to select a class of mail if you are using Key In Postage mode. Selecting a class will ensure your preset values are updated automatically when post- age rates change.

NOTE: You can elect to save the custom preset without a selecting a class, but your preset values will not update automatically when postage rates change.

1.Enter the values for the mail job (for example, the weighing mode, the postage value, class and carrier etc.) that correspond to the values you want to be able to call up in the future by selecting a custom preset key. For example, you may want to define a set of conditions so that the envelopes are sealed only (no postage applied).

NOTE: Proceed as if you were actually running a job. Select the mode and class and service etc. By doing this, you are entering the values that you will use for the normal preset. Refer to Chapter 4, Running Mail in this guide for more information on selecting mode and class.

•To choose a class, press the Select Class screen key and follow the prompts to select weighing and class options. Once you make the selections, the system returns to the Main screen. Return to step 2 to set the custom preset.
