Chapter – General Information 23
4 Pre-bar code and presort all envelopes. Meter the envelopes or
use precanceled stamps. (In addition to helping in the overall
performance of the laser-printed document, bar coding and
presorting can offer advantageous postal charges. Please
contact your USPS business office to find out more about this.)
5 Avoid text-on-text contact. This can be avoided by printing
single-sided, and then folding the document with the fold to the
outside. Text will contact only the inside of the envelope or the
back side of the printed sheets. If text-on-text contact cannot be
avoided, use a thin insert such as onion skin to separate the
printed sheets.
6 Ensure that all mailpieces placed in a tray and presented at the
retail window or Bulk Mail Acceptance Unit (BMAU). Avoid
placing laser-printed mail into collection boxes or chutes.
