Choosing a Weighing Type
Depending on the accessories and features on your Mailing System, several weighing
methods are available.
Weighing types
Depending on the type of mail you want to process, choose a weighing method
according to the recommendations in the table below.
For weighing...
Items one by one.
Items stacked on the Weighing Platform.
The Weighing type icon on the screen indicates the weighing method selected and
thus the source that provides the weight of the mail piece to the system.
Details on the Weighing Types
• Standard Weighing
In this mode, each mail piece is manually placed on the Weighing Platform, and
then put into the mail path.
• Differential Weighing
This mode speeds up the weighing process and increases your efficiency: all the
mail pieces are stacked together on the Weighing Platform. Remove the pieces
one by one and put them into the mail path. The Mailing System calculates the
postage and prints the mail piece automatically. You can leave all the mail pieces
in a tray on the Weighing Platform: the Mailing System will ask you to confirm
printing for the last item removed (from the tray).
The recommendations in the table only apply to items processed
with the same rate.
All weighing options listed below may not be available in your
Mailing System. Check with customer service to see how you
can easily add weighing features to your Mailing System via
online services.
