Smart Classes

The Smart Class™ capability of the DM Series™ mailing system software

has been enhanced to provide fully automatic printing of postal inscriptions

or postal endorsements. With the Smart Class™ feature, you are able to

set the WOW® (Weigh-On-The-Way®) in an automatic mode to allow

changes in Class based on the weight of the mail-piece. (Example: Auto-

matically switch between Presort Classes depending on the weight of mail-

pieces.) Now, the system can also automatically switch between Postal

Inscriptions (i.e. PRESORT) or Postal Endorsement (i.e. MEDIA MAIL,

ADDRESS SERVICE REQUESTED) that you choose for each weight

break.
Two steps are required to use this feature. First, you must select an adver-

tisement and/or inscription while setting up the Smart Class™ template.

Second, you must turn “on” the printing capability of printing Auto Inscrip-

tions. See Setting Up a Smart Class™ with an Auto Inscription in this sec-

tion for more information.
