About Running

Mail

1. Remove any onion skin/airmail type envelopes, Tyvek® envelopes,

envelopes that are thicker than 5/8” or any pieces of mail that are out-

side the limits specified for mailing materials - see Specifications in

Appendix C of this guide for details. Print the postage for this type of

mail on tape.

2. Sort the mail by envelope size and weight. If you are using the account-

ing feature, sort by account as well.

3. Shingle the envelopes so they are

slanted slightly to the left as

shown in the picture shown at

right. Place the stack of mail on

the feed deck shown in the picture

below. DM900™ Only: If you

have AutoStart enabled, do NOT

place the mail on the deck until

have made all your selections and

are ready to run mail..

• Place the envelopes with open flaps in the slot. Any envelopes that are

already closed are unaffected by the moistening process.

• Lift the back stop to its “up” position for larger mail.
