Running Mail With Sendsuite Xpress™ Or Ascent - Pitney Bowes SendPro P Series User Manual

Running mail with SendSuite Xpress™ or Ascent™
When a SendPro P system is interfaced with SendSuite Xpress or Ascent, the shipping application
sends a shipping job to the mailing system.
Note:
Accounting must be turned off and user logins must be disabled on your mailing and shipping
system before SendSuite Xpress or Ascent can successfully send a shipping job.
The Start and Tape buttons are replaced by a "Printing Remotely Controlled" message while the
shipping application sends the job settings to the system. There are two types of jobs sent from the
shipping system: trip and batch.
If a trip job is sent, the mailing and shipping system displays the postage amount and changes
l
the job to Key in Postage mode. The Start and Tape buttons remain unavailable. Running mail
is remotely controlled by the shipping application and your postage is printed on a tape or tapes.
Non-postal job settings (graphic ads, text messages, etc.) cannot be added to a trip job.
If a batch job is sent, the Start and Tape buttons become available once the job is received by
l
the mailing and shipping system. You can add or edit non-postal job settings, and print to either
envelopes or tapes.
Lock spend
If "lock spend" option is checked in SendSuite Xpress or Ascent, printing (spending) on the mailing
and shipping system is locked; this means that the Start and Tape buttons are not available on the
Run Mail screen when a postal job is selected. You will be able to run non-postal jobs in lock spend
mode. All other system features and functions remain available. Once a job run is complete, the
system will return to lock spend mode.
For more information about SendSuite Xpress or Ascent, refer to the help system provided with the
application.
