and time of delivery of your mail or, if the delivery was
unsuccessful, the date and time of the delivery attempt. The
service is currently available for Priority Mail and Package
Services, which includes Parcel Select, Parcel Post, Bound
Printed Matter, Special Standard Mail and Library Mail.
You may combine Delivery Confirmation with other services
such as COD, insured mail, registered mail, parcel airlift
(PAL) or special handling.
There is no charge for Delivery Confirmation when you
ship by Priority Mail and provide an electronic file to the
Postal Service. There is a per piece charge when you ship
Package Services using the electronic option. To get the
latest fees, go to
www.usps.com and search for "Delivery
Confirmation".
Differential Weighing The weighing mode that allows you to put all of the mail
on the scale, then remove each piece one at time. As you
remove each piece, the system calculates the weight and
prints postage (either on envelopes or tapes). This saves
time by eliminating the need to place each piece individually
on the scale.
Error Message An indication that notifies the operator of a disabling event
(i.e, out of ink).
External Device Port A plug on the machine that allows you to connect an
optional external device, such as a scale or a PC.
