Determining the Amount of Postage to Use
The amount of postage on a mail piece is based on USPS regula-
tions and involves factors such as:
• class of mail
• weight
• shape (for certain size letters and all packages)
• how fast you want the mail piece delivered
If you have purchased the optional internal rating feature, the
machine can make the process much easier as it calculates the post-
age automatically for most mail pieces based on the choices you se-
lect (weight, class, etc). In addition, if you have purchased the optional
scale, the weight of the mail piece can be used by the machine's inter-
nal rating feature to further streamline the postage calculation process.
If you need to manually calculate the postage, please contact your
local Post Office or go to www.usps.com for the latest rates and fees.

Optional Add-On USPS Services

If you want to use any of the optional add-on USPS Services (such
as insurance, COD, Delivery Confirmation, Signature Confirmation,
Return Receipt, etc.), please contact your local Post Office to com-
plete the postage process. You will have to attach specific labels
and/or fill out forms and pay additional fees to include these services
on your mail piece.
