    Abstract: A web-enabled VBI printing system including one or more cryptographic modules and a central database. The cryptographic modules are capable of implementing a variety of required security standards. A client system is integrated with HTML and provides a user friendly GUI for facilitating the interface of the user to the system. The client system includes wizards that help the user step-by-step with processes of installation, registration, and printing. In one aspect, the invention describes an web-based system for printing a value bearing item (VBI) that includes a client system for interfacing with a user comprising; a GUI for installing software for printing the VBI; a GUI for registering the user in the system; and a GUI for managing the printing of the VBI; and a server system capable of communicating with the client system over a computer network for authorizing the client system to print the VBI.

    Abstract: A secure and reliable method for verifying in the host system that the expected PSD is coupled to the host system includes generating a random number in the host system and encrypting the random number with a PSD state identification number. The encrypted random number is then sent to the PSD. The PSD decrypts the encrypted random number received using the PSD state identification number and sends the decrypted random number to the host system. The host system compares the decrypted random number received from the PSD to the random number generated in the host system. If they are the same, the host system has verified the expected PSD and has also verified that the PSD has not completed any transactions apart from the host system. A method for verifying that the expected host is coupled to the PSD mirrors the method for verifying the expected PSD.

    Abstract: A system for remotely modifying a mailing/shipping program at a customer terminal includes a mailing/shipping service provider terminal which communicates with the customer terminal over a communications path. The method includes selecting a feature of the mailing/shipping program to be modified, communicating a request for modification of the feature to the service provider terminal, and then communicating activation information to the customer terminal over a secure link to perform the requested modification. The modification may be the activation or de-activation of the program feature. According to another method, a data base of customer information at the service provider terminal is searched to identify customers who might be interested in a newly developed program feature or who have pre-purchased a rate table update service. An electronic mail message embodying the new feature or rate table is then automatically communicated to the terminals of the identified customers for installation.

    Abstract: A system and method for determining a weight of a postal item from information associated with the generation of the postal item. A processor-based system accepts input of information including parameters associated with the context in which the postal item is being generated. These parameters may be accepted directly from a process which is generating the postal item or may be manually input. From these parameters, the system determines attributes of the postal item from which a determination of its weight may be made. The attributes may be specific to postal items generated by a particular user of the system or may be attributes found to generally represent postal items generated in the particular context indicated by the parameters.

    Abstract: The invention is a method for producing a finished mail piece. The method allows a system user to select at a first node, a plurality of characteristics which define a mailing. These characteristics include selection of a document to be printed at a terminal node and a list of addresses to which the printed document will be sent. Once selections have been made, the print job is transmitted to a terminal node which comprises a data processor, an envelope printer, and a document printer among other elements. The document printer will print the document in accordance with the characteristics selected at the first node; and, the envelope printer will print addresses from the address list to corresponding envelopes. Once the document has been printed, it is inserted into the envelope by inserting means to form an unfinished mail piece. The unfinished mail piece is sealed and then franked with appropriate postage in order to form a finished mail piece. The mail piece is then placed into a mail stream for delivery to the destination address. A receipt indicative of the print job and delivery into the mail stream may be optionally generated by the terminal node and transmitted to the first node. Several nodal layers can be created such that the first node can transmit the print job to a second node which can further transfer the print job to subsequent nodes for printing and routing.

    Abstract translation: 本发明是一种生产完成的邮件的方法。 该方法允许系统用户在第一节点处选择定义邮寄的多个特征。 这些特征包括选择要在终端节点上打印的文档以及将要发送打印文档的地址列表。 一旦进行选择，将打印作业传送到包括数据处理器，信封打印机和文档打印机的终端节点等。 文件打印机将根据在第一个节点选择的特征打印文档; 并且信封打印机将打印地址列表中的地址到相应的信封。 一旦文件被打印出来，它就通过插入手段插入到信封中，形成未完成的邮件。 未完成的邮件被密封，然后用适当的邮资进行封印，以形成邮件。 然后将邮件放入邮件流中，以便传送到目的地址。 指示打印作业和传送到邮件流中的收据可以可选地由终端节点生成并被发送到第一节点。 可以创建几个节点层，使得第一节点可以将打印作业发送到第二节点，第二节点可进一步将打印作业传送到后续节点进行打印和路由。
