Running Mail Using a Barcode Scanner

The optional Barcode Scanner can be used to select an Account, a Job or a JobID1 or JobID2 identity from within the mail run Screen.

If the scanned barcode contains the text “START”, the system will automatically select the Start button and begin processing the mail run for that job. Similarly, if the barcode contains the text “TAPE”, the system will automatically select the Tape button and begin printing a tape for the mail piece.

NOTE: This assumes there are no other required fields open on the Run Mail screen that require you to enter information or select an option. For example, if the job also requires an account, the Run Mail screen will prompt you for the account number.
