You can request up to 99 tapes at a time. The tapes exit into the stacker.
The DM500™ and DM550™ system is designed to use a special pressure
sensitive adhesive tape made exclusively for it.
WARNING! Use only fresh rolls of Pitney Bowes tape to avoid
distortion or jams in the mechanism and possible loss of
postage.
•
To print one tape, you simply press the
Tape key instead of placing
mail on the feed deck.
•
To print more than one tape, use the numeric keys to type in the num-
ber of tapes you want, then press the
Tape key. The tapes exit into the
stacker on the right side of the mailing system.
NOTE: Do not lift any of the covers on the mailing system while the tape is
printing or the system will stop printing, cut and eject the tape.
