Term Definitions
Mark Present A condition is which the presence of an OMR
mark triggers a machine function. When the mark
is absent, no function is triggered.
Material A broad term referring to any type of paper in any
form that a paper handling device can process.
Material includes sheets, cards, slips, envelopes,
pre-folded and pre-collated sets and booklets.
Maximum Number
of sheets
The maximum number of sheets an inserter sys-
tem can handle reliably. Some inserter systems
limit user selections so that the maximum sheet
value can’t be exceeded.
Navigate To move through a menu structure, typically hier-
archical, in order to locate and select appropriate
setup options or machine commands.
Nesting A term that describes an insert or inserts placed
inside a folded sheet before the sheet is inserted
into an envelope.
OMR Marks Control codes in the form of printed dash lines on
sheets and inserts that tell an inserting system
how to process and assemble a mail piece. Also
see Scan Wndow.
Open Edge First Describes the orientation of an insert in a feeder
where the open edge feeds first.
Open Edge last For pre-folded inserts, describes the orientation
of an insert in an insert feeder where the closed
edge feeds first. Typically used when a tabbed or
non-tabbed pre-folded sheet is used as an insert.
Also see Tabbed Insert.
Optical Mark Reader A scanner capable of seeing control marks on a
printed page.
Outer Envelope The envelope that contains the completed mail
piece, as distinguished from business reply enve-
lopes (BREs) which are considered inserts.
Outsort The process of diverting or separating an unfin-
ished mail piece from the paper handling stream.
Outsorted pieces usually require special handling:
they may be oversize; the page count may be
more than the system can handle; or they may be
error pieces.
