What Does This Machine Do?

The Connect+® Series is a digital envelope and mail printing system that allows you to

create custom designed content from a PC and download that content directly into a graph-

ics library stored on the Connect+™ for use on mail runs. You can now design an outer

envelope with content that reinforces the internal message. You can add marketing, adver-

tising, and other promotional messages to your mail pieces.

The Connect+® Series provides a unique and easy-to-use touch screen interface where you

can access all of your applications from the home screen. Each application appears on the

Home screen as a button. Simply tap on the button to run the applications. Use the full

access web applications Verify Address, Track a Package, and My Account to increase you

mailing efficiencies.

The system also provides a full range of mail system functions including:

lPrinting postage on envelopes

lPrinting postage on tapes (labels)

lSealing envelopes

lCalculating postage based on item weight and size and class of mail.

The Home Screen

The Home screen is the first screen displayed when you log onto the system. It contains all

of the application buttons you need to start any of the system applications including Run

Mail, Jobs, Funds, Manage Accounts, Reports, Rates & Updates, and Settings.

municate directly with you. This area is routinely updated and provides:
