Do I use Trackable Labels or Envelope Printing?

With SendPro® C-Series you can create either a trackable shipping label or print postage on an envelope. For a shipping label, tap Trackable Labels on the Home screen. For postage, tap Envelope Printing on the Home screen.
Why use Trackable Labels?
l You are sending large envelopes or packages.
l USPS tracking barcode requirements - if you are using any Priority Mail Services, any Priority Mail
Express Services, or any Parcel Select Services the USPS requires that a USPS tracking barcode and number appear on those packages or envelopes. Refer to the USPS site for more information.
l You can tailor your sending options by choosing USPS, UPS, or FedEx carrier. You can review
the costs, services, and delivery times of all three carriers and select the ideal way to send each package.
l Maximize savings through the USPS by having access to the commercial based rates and
discounts for sending letters and packages, including Priority Mail. This will save you 3 cents per letter and about one dollar per package.
l Take advantage of Pitney Bowes partnership with UPS. You are eligible for UPS office shipping
discounts including 18% savings on UPS next day air and 9% off of UPS Ground Commercial and Residential.
When to use Envelope Printing?
l If you are using pre-printed envelopes or postcards.
l If you only need the postage amount (indicia) on the envelope or label (you don't need tracking
information on the envelope).

Setting up a proxy server

A proxy server is a computer that acts as a gateway between your local network (and your SendPro C­Series meter) and a larger-scale network such as the Internet. Proxy servers provide increased performance and security.
A proxy server works by intercepting connections between sender and receiver. All incoming data enters through one port and is forwarded to the rest of the network via another port. By blocking direct access between two networks, proxy servers make it much more difficult for hackers to get internal addresses and details of a private network.
To setup the proxy complete the following:
1. Tap the Settings (gear) icon in the global toolbar.
2. Tap the Wi-Fi or Wired (Ethernet) option in the in the Device & Network section.
3. In the Proxy Setting drop-down select Manual.
4. For Proxy Hostname enter the IP address of your proxy server.
5. For Proxy Port, enter the port the SendPro® C-Series should use to send network traffic to the Proxy Server.
6. This step is optional. Use Bypass to enter any specific URLs or URL patterns (such as internal addresses) that you want to bypass the proxy.
7. If your Proxy Server requires authentication, select the Need Authentication check box and additional fields will be displayed.
a. Enter the Proxy Username.
Note: This may be case sensitive for some proxy servers.
b. Enter the Proxy Password Note:
Note: This is case sensitive for proxy servers.
For more information on connecting your SendPro C-Series meter to the Pitney Bowes network refer to

Creating an international trackable label

Important note: In order to print an international label you need to connect your SendPro® C-Series device to an 8 1/2 x 11" 1E50 laser printer. You can also print an international label from your SendPro online account using any 8 1/2 x 11" printer.
The procedure for creating an international trackable label is the almost the same as that for creating a domestic trackable label. The main difference is adding the information required for customs purposes. You must declare package contents for U.S. customs when shipping internationally and to military mail.
After you have recorded the weight of the package you are prompted to enter the customs information.
This includes:
l Types of items in your shipment (documents, gifts or merchandise). Select either Abandon or
Return to Sender if the item cannot be delivered.
l Description for each item, where the item was made, the quantity of the items.
Note: In order to enter the description information you need to tap the Add an item button.
l Enter optional HS Tariff information if appropriate.
l Enter where the item was made
To add additional items tap Save and Add. If you are finished adding items, tap Save.

Printing a USPS scan form

You can use the USPS Shipment Confirmation Acceptance Notice (SCAN) Form 5630 to save time. Without SCAN Form 5630, the USPS needs to scan each individual shipping label. This can be time consuming if there are a large number of international shipping labels. Instead of scanning each individual shipping label, SCAN Form 5630 can be scanned once, and every international shipping label from that day will be uploaded to the USPS systems.
You can enable USPS scan form printing on your SendPro® C-Series.
1. Tap the Settings (gear) icon in the global toolbar.
2. Slide down to Shipping Settings, then tap Label Options.

Getting a USPS refund for damaged or incorrectly printed mail in Envelope Printing
Once you print a meter impression, the postage amount is deducted from the funds on your machine even if the printing is illegible. Therefore it is important to make sure the correct value is shown on the machine before printing the postage. Also do not let the ink level get too low. We recommend that you always keep a spare ink cartridge on hand for this reason.
For complete and up-to-date guidelines you can go to www.usps.com and search HELP > FAQs for: Is
Postage Meter Postage Eligible for a Refund?
Postage Meter indicia is eligible for a refund if it is complete, legible, valid, unused and printed on un­mailed envelopes, wrappers, or labels made in accordance with DMM 604.9.3.4. This includes:
l Postage printed on the back (versus the front) of a letter
l Only a portion of the postage printed or postage isn't legible
l Too much postage was printed on the item
l Not enough postage was printed on the item
l Incorrect date on the meter
l Incorrect information (street name, number, city, etc)
You must submit the indicia within 60 days from the date shown on the indicia to the licensing Post Office™, the United States Postal Service® processes the refund request. When the unused metered postage is affixed to a mail piece, the refund must be submitted with the entire envelope or wrapper.
For all indicia except those produced by PC Postage systems, you will need to submit the indicia to the licensing Post Office. The Postal Service™ charges 10% of face value on the indicia if the total is $350 or less. If the total face value is more than $350, the charge is $35 per hour for the actual hours to process the refund; the minimum charge is $35.
