摘要： The invention relates to a method for processing mail wherein information located on at least one surface of the mail is detected. The inventive method is characterized in that address information determined by means of the information located on the surface of the mail is compared with available address information in a data bank or in a database drawn up therefrom, and in that in querying the data bank or database, the address information thus determined is associated with new address information and the address information established by querying the data bank or database is applied to the mail as new address information. The information also relates to a device suitable for carrying out the above-mentioned method.

摘要： The present invention provides systems and methods for electronically capturing a destination address of a package and for using the destination address to automate a package pre-load operation. An embodiment of the invention includes a compression system for compressing the destination address as a compressed MaxiCode symbol, a smart shipping label system for generating a shipping labe l with a compressed MaxiCode and a pre-load assist system for generating package handling instructions from the electronically-captured destination address.

摘要： A method and apparatus for processing mail is provided. The mail is serially fed from a stack of mail into a system transport (40). The system transport conveys the mail to an imaging station (45), which scans the mail to obtain image data corresponding to at least a portion of each piece. From the imaging station, the mail is conveyed to a buffer (50), which selectively maintains the mail while the address printed on the mail is determined. After the address for a piece of mail is determined, the piece is conveyed out of the buffer to a printer (80), which prints a POSTNET barcode onto the piece. The POSTNET barcode corresponds to the address that was determined for the piece. Optionally, the apparatus may include a labeller (70) for applying a blank label onto the mail, and the POSTNET barcode can then be printed onto the label after it is applied to the mail. After the POSTNET barcode is printed on a piece, it is conveyed past a verifier (85), which scans the printed POSTNET barcode to ensure that the barcode was printed properly. The mail is then sorted and stacked in a plurality of output bins (96, 97, 98, 99).

摘要： In this postal sorting process, ordered lists (C11-C23) of the sort codes affixed to the mail items are compiled in the handling sorting offices (CTA1, CTA2), these lists being representative of the order of the mail items in the batches of mail items compiled during the handling sorting phase. These lists of codes are transferred from the handling sorting offices to the distribution sorting offices and during the processing of the batches of mail items in a distribution sorting office, the codes read by machine on the mail items are compared with the codes extracted from said lists of codes with a view to recovering errors in reading said codes by machine.

摘要： A return mail piece (10) includes a generally rectangular sheet of material with a delimited mailing address zone (22), a bar code zone (24) in the lower right corner of the sheet, and a subclassification zone (26) in the upper left hand corner of the sheet. Site location indicia (29,30,32) is printed within the mailing address zone (22) to identify the address of the site location. Separate subclassification indicia (38) is printed within the subclassification zone (26) so as to identify one of a plurality of end locations as the site locations.
