Auto Rate Large Envelope (Flats)
Use this option to automatically meter large envelopes (flats) when
the pieces are fed in portrait orientation.
Normally, if a flat is fed in portrait orientation, the piece would cover
the last width sensor and the system will report an error (e.g., "Mail-
piece Too Wide") without printing postage. However, if you are sure
the mail pieces fall within the "flats" category as determined by USPS
specifications (see Appendix B- USPS® First Class Mail® Sizes),
you can turn this feature on and feed the flats in portrait orientation
through the machine.
