Mailroom Enhancements

Earning Discounts With MERLIN

For in-plants seeking mailing discounts, mail imaging equipment manufacturers have answered the need. Since the United States Postal Service (USPS) has adopted a MERLIN (mailing evaluation readability lookup instrument) program to qualify mailers for automation discounts, camera-based quality assurance systems are working to be compliant. MERLIN verifies mail against USPS standards, including bar code readability and consistency.
