Wrap-Around Se-
quencing
A numbering system that starts on the first page
of a print run, which is sequential throughout the
run. The marks can be set to check for either as-
cending or descending sequence. If one of these
is chosen, then the collation sets must occur in
the correct sequence or the machine will stop mail
processing and declare an error. This feature pro-
vides an additional level of document processing
integrity.
Z-Fold A fold type where a sheet is folded in thirds with
the top and bottom panels facing opposite direc-
tions. Also known as an accordion fold. The fold
looks like the letter “Z” when viewed from the
edge.

Zone Improvement Plan (ZIP) Code is the numeri-
cal code assigned by the US Postal Service to
designate a local area or entity for the delivery
of mail. ZIP Codes may consist of 5, 7, 9, or 11
digits, and may refer to a street section, a collec-
tion of streets, an establishment, a structure, or a
