• Read all instructions before operating the equipment. Only use
the equipment for its intended purpose.
• Operation of this equipment without periodic maintenance will
inhibit optimum operating performance and could cause the
equipment to malfunction. Contact your Pitney Bowes Customer
Service Representative for required service schedule.
• Use the power cord supplied with the machine. Plug it and all
other supplied power cords into a properly grounded wall outlet
that is located near the machine and easily accessible, meaning
it is free from obstruction and there is enough room around the
unit for servicing.
• The power cord wall plug is the primary means of disconnecting
the machine from the AC supply.
• Do not use an adapter plug on the line cord or wall outlet. Do not
remove the ground pin from the line cord.
• Avoid using wall outlets controlled by wall switches or shared
with other equipment. Do not route the AC power cord over

Machine Configurations
The following machine configurations are available, depending on
yourlocalmarket:
• Two Sheet Feeders Only
• Four Sheet Feeders Only
• Two Sheet Feeders and One Insert Feeder
• Two Sheet Feeders and Two Insert Feeders
• Four Sheet Feeders and One Insert Feeder
• Four Sheet Feeders and Two Insert Feeders
Each feeder location has its own letter designation which remains
the same irrespective of machine configuration. Therefore, machine
configurations with less than the full complement of feeders will use
feeder designations which are not in alphabetical sequence – this is
normal.
The processing speed will also vary depending on machine
configuration. See ‘Specifications’ in Chapter 7 for further details.
The illustration on the next page shows feeder locations and
designations.
In addition, an Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) option can be added
to any model. This allows control of machine functions and Mail
Piece make-up by ‘scanning’ material passing through the machine
for machine readable marks (OMR Marks). For further information,
refer to Chapter 5 of this guide.
This guide covers all models. If a function is dependent on machine
configuration, the accompanying text will explain this.

Sheet Feeders
1
Use these feeders to feed sheets that require folding. A
double detect feature can be enabled which checks to see if
more than one sheet feeds (a double detect), giving security to
your mailings.
Depending on the job being run and availability of feeders,
there also is an option to ‘link’ these feeders so that when
the first feeder runs out of material, feed will automatically
switch to the next linked feeder. This allows a higher volume of
material to be processed before refilling is required.
Control Panel

This is where you enter commands to run the machine or
configure Job Settings. The control panel display also shows
you the machine status, loading instructions and details of the
job. See 'Control Panel' on the page 1-8 for more details.

Manual Feeder (also known as Convenience Feeder or Daily
3
Mail Feeder)
Use this feeder to manually feed stapled or unstapled sets of
up to 5 sheets (see specifications, page 7-2). The machine
waits for each set to be manually fed before folding and
inserting the set automatically into the envelope. A Supervisor
can also configure the machine to place insert(s) within the set
if Insert Feeder(s) are fitted.
Insert Feeder(s) (not on all model configurations)
4
Use these feeders to add additional inserts to your envelope.
Inserts fed from these feeders cannot be folded by the
machine, so they must already be folded or be a size that
does not require folding.
Drop Stacker (not illustrated)
5
A fold down stacker is located at the exit from the machine
to collect the finished Mail Pieces. This unit can be latched
against the machine when not in use.
Power stacker (not illustrated)
This is an option which automatically collects and neatly
stacks finished Mail Pieces. It locates at the exit of the
machine, in place of the Drop Stacker.
Mailing Machine Interface (not illustrated)
This is an option which automatically transports Mail Pieces to
a Pitney Bowes Mailing Machine for postal ‘franking’.
Sealer Bottle
6
The sealer bottle is located inside an opening cover at the
front right side of the machine. It provides sealing solution to
the Envelope Sealer.
Manual Advance Knob
7
The Manual Advance Knob is located inside an opening cover
at the lower center of the machine. It can be used to manually
turn the machine mechanisms to assist in clearing a material
stoppage.
Measuring Scale
8
The scale is located on the left side of the machine near the
sheet feeders as an aid in measuring material and envelopes.
Envelope Feeder
9
This feeder feeds envelopes into the inserting area where they
are filled with the material requested from the other feeder(s).

Mail Piece Icon Tree
The Mail Piece Icon Tree is located on the left side of the display.
It displays the Mailing Object Icons required, based on the Job
Definition.
The icons inform you which feeders to load, the type of object (sheet,
insert, etc.) to be loaded into each designated feeder and the loading
orientation of each object. It is therefore extremely important that you
become familiar with the icons themselves and the make-up of the
Mail Piece Icon Tree.

Introduction • 1
Mail Piece Icon Tree Icons
Each Mailing Object Icon has one darker edge either at the top or
bottom that indicates the leading edge of the object when loaded into
the assigned feeder. The leading edge of an object is the edge that
feeds into the machine first.
For example, a sheet that must be loaded face
up with the top of the sheet leading would be
represented by a “face-up” sheet icon containing a
“leading edge” line on top.
A feeder assignment letter (A to G) will be placed
alongside the Mailing Object Icon to indicate which
feeder the object should be loaded into.
Two or more feeder assignment letters alongside a
single Mailing Object Icon indicate that linked feeders
have been selected. The item should be loaded in
all the feeders indicated. When one feeder becomes
empty, feed will automatically switch to the next
linked feeder and so on, in a continuous cycle.
If Double Detect is in use, the Double Detect Icon will
appear immediately to the left of the relevant Mailing
Object Icon.
If any Sheet Feeder(s) are programmed to feed
Pre-Collated Sets (multiple sheets), a modified icon
indicating multiple sheets will appear, together with
a number showing the number of sheets in the PreCollated Set.
On an Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) job, a
variable number of pages might be fed under
control of the OMR marks and so a small letter ‘n’
will appear in place of the number. Also, an asterisk
(*) will be displayed in the Mail Piece Icon Tree to
remind you that the job is an OMR job.
Lines between the Mailing Object Icons indicate the flow of material
through the machine.

Throughout the machine screens and this guide, standard terms are
used to describe the elements of the Mail Piece and functions of the
equipment.
It is therefore important that you fully understand the following basic

SheetA single piece of paper that will require folding
by the machine before it is placed into an
envelope.
Pre-Collated SetA set of sheets printed in a collated sequence
i.e. sheet 1, sheet 2, sheet 3, etc.
StackA pile of paper as received from the printer
that will be loaded into a feeder (or feeders)
on the machine. A stack might consist of
numerous individual Sheets or numerous
Pre-Collated Sets, depending on how it was
printed.

allow more time for the envelope flap gum to

Allows more than one feeder to be configured
to run the same Stack. When the first feeder
runs out of material, feed will automatically

in a continuous cycle. This allows empty
feeder(s) to be loaded while another linked
feeder is feeding material.
