Abstract
A system for automatically imaging special service forms and affixing same to an envelope is provided. The system has a mailpiece handler for accepting mailpieces having a machine readable code. The system also has a data storage unit for storing addressee and/or sender data related to the mailpieces. A code reader constructed and arranged to read the machine-readable code on the mailpieces is provided. An imaging unit is provided for imaging data onto special service forms wherein the data is obtained from the data storage unit. Further, an assembly unit assembles the special service forms to the mailpieces. Further, a method of fully automating imaging of special service forms and affixing same to an envelope is also provided. The method has the steps of inserting a mailpiece having a code into a mailpiece handler, reading the code from the mailpiece, storing addressee and/or sender data, processing the code from the mailpiece to select a corresponding stored addressee and/or sender data, imaging the corresponding addressee and/or sender data onto a form, and assembling the form with the mailpiece.
