Using
Confirmation
Services Before
Printing Postage
USPS Confirmation Services are available when you are in the Attached
Scale mode, or Manual Weight Entry mode. Refer to Se��ect the Posta�e
Mode section in this chapter for more information.
The following procedure is based on using a Priority class and the E-Del
Con service. Your procedure may vary slightly depending on your class
and service.
1. Place the piece of mail or package on the scale.
2. Press the
Class key.
3. Select the class, for example,
Priority.
4. Select the service, for example,
E-Del Con. As soon as you select the
service, a check mark appears in front of it.
5. Press the
Enter key.
6. At this point, you are prompted to enter the 5-digit destination ZIP
Code. Use the numeric keyboard to enter the code.
7. Press the
Enter key and the “Barcode” screen appears.
8. If this is the first time you are entering a confirmation service, the
screen is blank and you need to enter the entire barcode value. If you
have a barcode scanner, you can scan in the number.
a. If you have used the confirmation service before, the next barcode
value (in the series of barcode labels) appears, minus the last digit.
b. If you have used all of the labels in a series of barcode labels,
make sure you start with the top label with the lowest last 4-digits
and not the bottom label with the highest last 4-digits. If you have a
barcode scanner, you can scan in the number.
9. If you are using a barcode scanner and have set up your system to au-
tomatically enter the barcode value (see Settin� Auto-Enter in Chapter
5 in this guide), go to step 10.
If you type in the barcode value, enter the last digit of the number from
the label you will use. Then press the
Enter key to accept the barcode
value and the system returns to the main screen (“Attached Scale
Mode” appears).
NOTE:
Make sure the barcode on the label matches the barcode value
you just entered in the system.
10. Press the
Tape key to print a tape. To print postage on a piece of mail,
place it on the feeder and press the
Start key.
11. You are prompted to apply the barcode label to the package. Apply the
barcode to the package.
12. Press the
Enter key. The “Enter another package?” screen appears.
Follow the screen prompts to process more pieces of mail for confir-
mation services.
