An alternative is now available for small offices that outsource their postcard and envelope printing needs. PSI Engineering, a leader in material handling and in-line document automation solutions, has created a new edition to its Laser Mail Series, the Laser Mail DPT. As a tabletop envelope printer, the DPT is the ideal solution for companies who want to print high quality, personalized envelopes and postcards (in-house) with a Big Company image on a small company's budget.

Crisp, laser printed envelopes produced by the Laser Mail DPT are complete with return address, indicia, mailing address, teaser and barcodes, all of which are printed during one printing pass. Considerable time savings are realized with the DPT, compared to alternative postcard and envelope printing solutions, which require multiple printer passes to print the same information. The Laser Mail DPT will address envelope sizes ranging from 3" x 6" to 8.5" x 14", as well as postcards and other difficult stock at a rate of up to 25 per minute.

Equipped with PSI's "Load-On-The- Fly" feeder system, the Laser Mail DPT minimizes user intervention, allowing for labor cost savings. The feeding systems can load up to 500 envelopes or postcards and feeder reloads can take place while the system is in operation, which means virtually no downtime.

Small offices will appreciate the compact design of the DPT, a laser envelope and postcard printer which easily fits on most sized tabletops. With its launch, the DPT becomes the first tabletop envelope printer in PSI's successful Laser Mail Envelope Printer Series.

"Our Laser Mail Series dealt almost exclusively with mailing houses and large organizations with high printing volumes and multiple runs," recalls Frank P. Bonsu, Printer Solutions Account Manager at PSI. "Often we were approached by small offices in need of an envelope printing system. Unfortunately, many printing systems in the marketplace were not feasible for these companies because of their low print volumes and budgets. With their needs in mind, we developed the Laser Mail DPT."

The Laser Mail DPT features the lowest operating cost in the desktop laser printer class, and saves small offices the expense of purchasing another laser printer, since it can be used for multi functional printing when not running envelopes.

The system is compatible with Merlin (Mail Evaluation Readability Instrument), the automated verification tool used by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to ensure that bulk mailings meet standard quality levels.

The Laser Mail DPT is available in both monochrome and full color formats.
