FAQs and more...

 

  • Does our machine automatically update the rates or does this need to be done manually? 

For those with a new iX Series Meter, the postage rates will be automatically updated. Simply log off and log in to apply the changes! If you're using another Quadient postage meter, you can update the rates by initiating a "Generic Call" from the machine to the server.

  • How can I tell if I have an IMI postage meter?

If you are a Quadient customer, our iX meters are all IMI compliant. If you have an IS, IN or IM meter, those meters are being decertified by the US Postal Service.

These Quadient meters are IMI ready >>

  • What is Mail Automation?

Utilizing a folder inserter allows you to efficiently manage the entire mailing process with minimal effort. This device simplifies the folding, inserting, and delivery of important business communications like invoices and statements. It helps minimize mailing errors, especially in industries dealing with sensitive customer, client, or patient information, preventing the unintentional sending of incorrect mail to recipients. When combined with mail automation software, this setup not only reduces errors but also enhances the overall efficiency of preparing mail for your customers.

  • Many of our offices have a need to send Certified Mail, and currently, staff members are visiting the U.S. Post Office for these tasks. Is there a more convenient option available?

Glad you asked! There is a more convenient and efficient way to process Certified Mail. You can send Certified Mail directly from your computer or home office, and enjoy a 36% cost savings by using an online solution like e-Certify. Proof of delivery and signatures are available in the e-Certify portal as soon as mailings are delivered, usually within 2-5 business days or less if you use Priority Mail. Just hop into your portal to print delivery confirmations and share signatures with your associates. 
    If you need the confirmation right away, you can still create your Certified Mail piece in the e-Certify portal to manage the chain of custody. Just print your postal service forms and have them date stamped at the Post Office if legal proof of mailing is required.
