Print Labels for Current List

General Information

This screen enables you to select the type of mailing, type of mailing piece, and output format for the current list.

Note: M.O.M. has the ability to pre-sort a mailing per zip code. It is highly recommended that you obtain the best bulk mailing discount available from the USPS, and to use an external package such as Accumail to print and pre-sort a large mailing.

How to Use the Screens

Use the fields and selection options for each information category to prepare your mailing and customize your label print output. Use the PREVIEW MAILING COSTS button to view postage costs based on your selections on the screen. Use the other buttons at the bottom of the screen to print the USPS 3600 Report, Qualifying Report, sack and tray labels and listing, and the actual mailing labels.

Mailing Information

MAILING CLASS - select a mailing class based on USPS options and requirements.

SERVICE/PRE-SORT LEVEL - select a service level based on USPS options and requirements.

Based on the entries above, the INFORMATION window provides special information about the selected mailing class and service level requirements.

Mailing Piece

TYPE OF MAIL PIECE - select the type of piece that you are mailing based on USPS options and requirements.

Sample Information

When you are preparing a mailing for the USPS, you need to know the exact weight and thickness of each piece. Because it may be difficult to weigh and/or measure one single catalog, M.O.M. lets you use several catalogs for the sample weight and thickness. Enter the NUMBER IN SAMPLE corresponding to the number of catalogs you are weighing and measuring. Then enter the SAMPLE THICKNESS in inches and SAMPLE WEIGHT in ounces. M.O.M. automatically does the arithmetic for you to produce the weight and thickness for one single catalog.

POSTAGE PAYMENT - select the method of postage payment from the scrollable list of options.

Information to be Printed on Labels

PRINT CUSTOMER NUMBER ON LABEL - check this box to print the M.O.M. customer number on each label.

PRINT OPTIONAL ENDORSEMENT LINE ON LABEL- check this box to print the USPS Optional Endorsement Line on the label. The Endorsement Line can be used in lieu of applying the USPS "3-digit," "5-digit," "ADC" and "Mixed ADC" stickers on the pieces in the mailing.

SOURCE KEY TO BE PRINTED ON LABEL - Enter a key code to be printed on the labels. This is typically an advertising source key to identify response for a particular mailing, but could be a short message. Note: If a Source Key for List has been entered, it is displayed here for you automatically, but can be cleared. If you have entered source keys for individual Selection Statements on the List Query screen, this field is not available and these Selection Statement source keys are automatically printed on the labels.

Label Output Format

PAPER/STYLE - select a label format from the scrollable list.
