About Printing Postage Tapes

Print postage tapes for:

•Packages

•Onion skin/airmail type envelopes

•Tyvek® envelopes

•Envelopes that are thicker than 1/2” (DM800™) or 3/4” (DM900™)

•Any pieces of mail that are outside the limits specified for mailing mate- rials - see Chapter 12, Specifications in this guide for details.

You can request up to 50 tapes at a time. The tapes exit into the stacker. The mailing system is designed to use a special pressure sensitive adhe- sive tape made exclusively for it.

CAUTION: Use only fresh rolls of Pitney Bowes® tape to avoid distortion or jams in the mechanism and possible loss of postage.

•To print one tape, you simply press the Tape key instead of placing mail on the feed deck.

•To print more than one tape, use the numeric keys to type in the num- ber of tapes you want, then press the Tape key. The tapes exit into the stacker on the right side of the mailing system.

NOTE: Do not lift any of the covers on the mailing system while the tape is printing or the system will stop printing, cut and eject the tape.
