Pitney Bowes DM230L User Manual

This procedure is used for processing Parcels (those mail pieces whose 
dimensions – size and weight – and associated rates extend outside of 
the Lettermail rating structure) if you did not purchased the optional parcel 
rate module. Based on the rate structure provided in your system a Parcel 
can be considered any mail piece that weighs over 500 grams. In order to 
use this process you will need to weigh the mail piece on the integrated 
scale or enter the weight using the manual weight entry feature, and you 
will need to know the appropriate postage rate. If you need assistance 
determining if a mail piece should be rated as Lettermail or as a Parcel 
or need to obtain the postage rate for the mail piece, contact your local 
Canada Post retail outlet or log on to www.canadapost.ca.
