Running a WEIGH-ON-THE-WAY® (W-O-W®) - First Piece Only Job

Use this method if all of the mail pieces in your job are identical, for example, if they all have the same number of pages in the same size envelope. Since the system only has to weigh the first piece, this job runs faster.

In this weighing method, the machine weighs the first mail piece and processes the remaining mail at the same postage rate. If Shape Based Rating (SBR) class is used, the first envelope is also measured.

     CAUTION: Do not lean on or disturb the system while it is processing mail in this mode. It will affect the amount of postage applied to the mail piece.

  1. Select the Run Mail button from the Home screen.
  2. Select a job that uses WEIGH-ON-THE-WAY® (W-O-W®) - first piece only or select the Weighing icon.
    1. Select WOW, first piece only.
    2. Select OK.
  3. Put all of the mail on the feed deck.
  4. Select Start.
