摘要： A system including a mailpiece sorting apparatus which includes a feeder, an OCR scanner, a mailpiece deliverer, a diverter and output module, compartments or bins for receiving sorted mailpieces, an optical character recognition system for reading addressee information, an addressee database, and microprocessor based control system is described. In an illustrative example, harmful materials are detected in mailpieces and such mailpieces are diverted from the mail stream. In another example, the system is contained in a detection area and clean room; and/or the system uses x-ray technology to determine the content of the mailpieces. The system provides for detection of harmful materials in mailpieces so as to help deter delays in incoming mail delivery caused by the presence of life harming material and to sanitize the mail so as to protect the intended recipients from harm.

摘要： This invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art by providing a method of sorting mailpieces which requires less stopping of the sorting process for bin emptying. The present invention is directed to a mailpiece sorting method which indicates when a bin is partially full to the level of a partially full sensor so that an operator can empty that bin. Additionally, a bin-full calculation is performed for determining if redirection of the mailpieces to an alternate bin is necessary should the operator not empty the bin as directed. If a bin is partially full to the level of the sensor, the process performs an addition of thicknesses of all of the mailpieces which are in the mailpiece delivery system, but not yet delivered to the bin to determine whether those mailpieces would fill the bin. If the bin would be full, it is determined whether an alternate bin is available and, if so, the mailpieces are routed to the alternate bin. If an alternate bin is not available, the sorting system is shut down and the full bin(s) is(are) emptied.
摘要翻译：本发明通过提供一种分类邮件的方法来克服现有技术的缺点，这种方法需要较少停止用于排空的排序过程。本发明涉及一种邮件分类方法，该方法指示一个箱子何时部分满满到部分完整的传感器的水平，以便操作者可以清空该箱子。另外，如果操作员不按指示清空垃圾箱，则执行一个全箱计算，以确定是否需要将邮件重定向到备用仓。如果垃圾箱部分满载到传感器的水平面上，则该过程执行在邮件传送系统中的所有邮件的厚度的添加，但尚未传送到垃圾箱以确定这些邮件是否填充垃圾箱。如果垃圾箱已满，则确定是否可以使用备用垃圾箱，如果是，则邮件将路由到备用垃圾箱。如果备用纸箱不可用，则排序系统将关闭，并将完整的纸盘清空。

摘要： Methods and systems for rendering a shipping label, including an indicium that evidences payment for delivery, for a mail piece using a mailing machine and remote web server. Parameter information for a mail piece are input to a mailing machine, which determines the fees required for delivery of the mail piece. The mailing machine generates indicium data based on the determined fee with appropriate security measures, which is sent from the mailing machine to a remote web server operated by the carrier. The web server renders a shipping label, including all information required by the carrier, along with the indicium data, in a printable format. The data for the shipping label is sent to the mailing machine. Accounting registers maintained in the mailing machine are debited for the determined fees, and a shipping label is printed using a printing device associated with the mailing machine.

摘要： The present invention is directed, in a general aspect, system including a mail sorting apparatus which generally comprises a feeder, a line scan camera, an in-line printer, a control system which may be the microprocessor based personal computer system, at least one addressee database and sort plan, a mailpiece transporter, a bin module with compartments or sort bins for receiving mailpieces. This invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art by enabling a mail sorting apparatus to address sort internal mailings (business to employee mail). The foregoing is accomplished by addressing and sorting employee mailpieces in one process by using information from one or more databases of the mail sorting apparatus, including the addressee database and sort plan, and an in-line printer for printing employee and/or delivery information on the employee mailpiece. Thus, the method of the present invention provides a less costly, simplified way to prepare internal mailings.

摘要： A system for accounting for postage expended by a postage meter. The system includes a keyboard and display for entry of commands and postal information, a printer, a memory for storing account records and program data, the memory further including a non-volatile memory for storing account records and other data, an interface to an electronic postage meter, and a processor including a CPU. The processor controls an electronic postage meter through the interface in accordance with the program data and entered postal information to set the meter and then responds to signals from the meter to update account records. The processor may also edit selected account records in accordance with entered information. In one disclosed embodiment the system responds to an operator request to print the account data base by repetitively scanning the account data base and sequentially printing accounts. In another disclosed embodiment the system stores images of account to be edited in selected regions of non-volatile memory before beginning to edit the account. These embodiments increase the security of the data in the accounts by avoiding exposure to data loss due to power failures or transients while accounts are being processed. In another disclosed embodiment a record of edited accounts is maintained by the system to allow a service technician to detect unauthorized editing of accounts. In still another disclosed embodiment the system tracks the contents of the postage meter ascending register to detect off-line meter usage.
