About Printing
Postage Tapes

Print postage tapes for:
• Packages

• Onion skin/airmail type envelopes

• Tyvek® envelopes

• Envelopes that are thicker than 5/8”

• Any pieces of mail that are outside the limits specified for mailing mate-

rials - see Appendix C, Specifications in this guide for details.

You can request up to 50 tapes at a time. The tapes exit into the stacker.

The DM800i™ system is designed to use a special pressure sensitive

adhesive tape made exclusively for it.

• 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.

CAUTION:

Use only fresh rolls of Pitney Bowes® tape to avoid

distortion or jams in the mechanism and possible loss of postage.

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.
