4.Select Differential Weighing. The system prompts you to place the mail 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.

5.Place the mail on the scale.

If you have previously selected a class, the system displays the fol- lowing prompt at the top of the screen: Print tapes automatically On or Off.

-If you select On, then when you remove each piece of mail, the system automatically prints a tape.

-If you select Off, you remove the first piece of mail and place it on the feed deck. The system automatically feeds the mail.

If you have not previously selected a class, you are prompted to select one now. For more information, refer to “Selecting the Class, Carrier, Special Services or Options” in this chapter.

6.Begin removing mail from the scale. Please note the following:

Remove each piece of mail in a single continuous motion.

If you mistakenly remove more than one piece of mail, put all of the pieces of mail back on the scale. If you only put one piece back on, the system does not print the correct postage.

7.When you remove the last piece of mail from the scale, the system asks you if you want to print postage. This is in case the last piece you remove from the scale is the container for the mail.
