Smart Classes The Smart Class™ capability of the DM Series™ mailing system software
has been enhanced to provide fully automatic printing of postal inscriptions
or postal endorsements. With the Smart Class™ feature, you are able to
set the W-O-W® (Weigh-On-The-Way®) in an automatic mode to allow
changes in Class based on the weight of the mail-piece. (Example: Auto-
matically switch between Presort Classes depending on the weight of mail-
pieces.) Now, the system can also automatically switch between Postal
Inscriptions (i.e. PRESORT) or Postal Endorsement (i.e. MEDIA MAIL,
ADDRESS SERVICE REQUESTED) that you choose for each weight
break.
Two steps are required to use this feature. First, you must select an adver-
tisement and/or inscription while setting up the Smart Class™ template.
Second, you must turn “on” the printing capability of printing Auto Inscrip-
tions. See Setting Up a Smart Class™ with an Auto Inscription in this sec-
tion for more information.
