Proposed Changes for Letter Size Folded Self Mailers
The USPS has released proposed changes for Tabbing/Glue Standards for Letter
Sized Folded Self Mailers. Keep in mind that these are proposed changes so they
could be updated before they are made final. You can review the proposed changes
in the PDF below which is divided into 10 different categories of folded self
mailers.
The main change from the current rules to the new proposed rules is the
requirement for all mailing tabs/wafer seals are to be NON-PERFORATED.
In addition, if you are applying tabs to folded self mailers, at first glance
there are a minimum requirement of 2 tabs required on the more popular designs
with up to 3 required depending on the mail piece weight. Also depending on the
mail piece weight the proposed rules have different tabs size requirements
ranging from 1", 1.5" and even 2" tabs.
We also have a FAQ answered from
the USPS as to when these new proposed changes would go into affect:
Q. What is the status of
the folded self-mailer study and proposed mailing standard changes?
A. In an effort to align
mailpiece designs that have emerged in the marketplace with automation
capabilities, USPS, working with MTAC, PCCs and the BSN, initiated a study
on folded self-mailers. Building on knowledge from earlier studies, mailers
once again had the opportunity to submit additional test material as part of
the self-mailer study. Analysis of the data collected during the testing
phase has concluded and the internal vetting process has begun.
To share learnings, USPS
will conduct a webinar to discuss the results and design specifications with
customers, mail service providers, printers, preparers and other members who
participated in the study. The broad industry participants will receive
advance information of proposed changes and will have an opportunity to
provide feedback on how those changes may affect the marketplace. To further
the collaboration process, USPS will consider concerns expressed during the
webinar as we prepare the proposed mailing standards for publication in the
Federal Register. We recognize planning is part of every successful mailing
campaign, so it is our intent to provide sufficient lead-time for adjusting
to any changes proposed to mailing standards.
We anticipate a
proposed Federal Register will be published by the end of this calendar
year; with any new standards implemented in mid-to late 2011. Look for
additional information on folded self-mailers in the coming months.
If you have any questions as to whether your current tabbing equipment
can handle these new proposed changes please contact us assistance

2010 Graph Expo News/Updates
Accufast ET Tabber running inline with 2 spools of 75,000 1.5" mailing tabs
mounted onto the new Accufast LDM unwinders.
Secap had their new Connect+ Series Full Color Postage Meters. The
touchscreen interface easily let's you program jobs, upload custom
artwork/logos, package tracking and account management all right at
your meter. It is a real simple meter that anyone in your office can
use. Secap also had their new SA3000 (5K-LE replacement). This
small tabletop address printer is perfect for a small user or business that
is just starting out doing their own addressing. Since this printer uses
the HP 45A style cartridge (which is available in many different ink
formulations) even the small users will be able to print on coated/glossy
stocks. Secap also had their new W360 Multi Side, Multi-Tabber
primarily used for letter-sized booklet applications (this is the exact same
model to the Rena T-650, with different feeders available).
We also got wind of a new ink formulation that will be available from HP
which will replace the C8842A Versatile Black ink cartridge. This new
ink formulation Versatile Black will work better with coated stocks allowing
for even quicker drying times.
At the Neopost/Rena Systems booth, they had a Rena Mach5 (AstroJet M1)
full color page/envelope printer. At 1600 dpi the envelopes they were
printing looked very good, better than any other high speed full color
inkjet printer on the market right now. Look for a
December launch date.
Duplo had their new DC-745 Slitter/Cutter/Creaser that can now run up to 10
slits, 20 cuts, and 15 creases all in a single pass at up to 50 sheets per
minute! This new unit will be available in December.
We also got to see their small run DFS-3500 Bookletmaking System that can
crease, fold, slit, stitch and trim for full-bleed bookets. Duplo also
has a new line of digital duplicators that will be available soon!
Be sure to check our website for more information and pricing on all these
new items and more!
