Envelope Guidance
Drop Shipment Endorsement
NOTE: Always run a test print (at $0.00 postage) before using Custom Messag-
ing to ensure proper placement on an envelope. Custom Messaging prints a
custom me
ssage or other information directly to the left of your postage meter
imprint and any Postal Endorsements or Inscriptions on the envelope. This mes-
sage does not print on the lef
t
margin of the envelope, nor does your mailing
system allow for placement of the custom message on your envelope. There-
fore, before printing a mailrun using this feature, you should always process a
Te
st Print with ZERO POSTAGE to ensure that the full message is properly
positioned on the envelope.
NOTE:
In most cases, the Drop Shipment Authorization
is printed using an
Endorsement purchased from the Pitney Bowes Online Store. The Custom Mes-
saging feature of the DM Series™ may satisfy USPS requirements
for Drop
Shipment endorsements on your mailings. However, the application and
endorsement format must be authorized locally by the USPS. Under current
Postal guidelines, the local business mail entry management of the USPS must
approve the application or endorsement format for mail deposited as “Drop
Shipment Authorization.” Contact the USPS directly for further guidance.
