Safety information
- Plug the mailing machine directly into a grounded wall outlet. Avoid light-duty extension cords, and replace a damaged power cord before use.
- Keep the ventilation openings clear and leave the clearance around the unit that the manual specifies for paper trays, covers and service access.
- Switch off and unplug the unit before cleaning it or reaching deep inside to clear a jam.
- Keep ink cartridges, bottles and waste-ink boxes away from children. If ink contacts skin, wash with soap and water; if it gets in the eyes, rinse with water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.
Setup
- Unpack and remove shipping materials
Remove all tape, foam and protective film, including pieces inside the covers and paper trays.
- Choose a location
Place the unit on a sturdy, level surface (or its floor stand) away from direct sunlight, heating vents and humid areas. Leave room to open covers and pull out trays.
- Install ink and set up the meter
Install the ink cartridge, connect the machine to the internet as instructed, and complete the postage-account registration and download of current postal rates.
- Connect to your computer or network
Connect the unit to your network (Ethernet or Wi-Fi where available) or directly by USB, following the setup guide. Network connection lets several users share it and makes firmware updates easier.
- Install drivers and software
Add the printer in your operating system. Many current network printers work with driverless standards such as AirPrint, Mopria or IPP Everywhere; install the full manufacturer driver if you need finishing, security or accounting features.
- Check the sleep timer
The unit is shipped to enter sleep 2 minutes after the last job. Keep this setting (or shorten it) to minimize idle energy use.
Using your mailing machine
Processing mail
Weigh each piece on the integrated or connected scale, select the mail class, and run envelopes through face-up as shown on the feed deck. Connect the machine regularly so postal rate tables and funds stay current.
Sleep and power settings
The factory sleep delay is 2 minutes. In sleep the unit draws 4.41 W, and 0 W when switched off at the power button. Use the auto-off or weekly timer (if offered) to switch the unit off overnight and on weekends.
Care and maintenance
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| When prompted | Replace ink, masters or other consumables, and empty used-master or waste containers. |
| Every 6 months | Install firmware updates from the manufacturer and vacuum dust from the exterior vents. |
Troubleshooting
Most mailing machine problems come from media, consumables, connections or settings. Try these steps first; for numbered error codes, look up the code in the manufacturer's manual or support site.
| Problem | Possible cause | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| Paper or media jams | Wrong media for the tray; overfilled tray; worn rollers; debris in the path. | Remove jammed media in the direction of the paper path, check for torn pieces, reload within the fill line, and clean the rollers. |
| Slow to start the first job | Unit waking from sleep. | This is normal. Group jobs together; avoid disabling sleep, which raises energy use considerably. |
Energy use and running costs
ENERGY STAR rates this device on its low-power modes: 4.41 W in sleep and 0 W when switched off. If it stays plugged in and asleep around the clock, sleep mode alone uses about 38.6 kWh per year — roughly $6.57 at $0.17 per kWh.
Switching it off outside a 10-hour, 5-day work week (and letting it sleep during working hours) cuts that to about 11.5 kWh per year ($1.95).
Energy used while actively printing is not included in these figures; it depends on how many pages you produce.
