What is <strong>OMR</strong>?<br />

The top-mounted scanner reads the marks from on top of the<br />

sheet, while the bottom-mounted scanner reads the marks<br />

from underneath the sheet of paper. This configuration allows<br />

you the maximum flexibility for your document folding needs<br />

when processed through the system. Specifically:<br />

• the top-mounted scanner supports C-fold and double fold<br />

documents so the address can be visible in window envelopes<br />

• that bottom-mounted scanner supports Z and half-fold<br />

documents so the address can be visible in window envelopes<br />

How are <strong>OMR</strong> Marks Generated?<br />

There are several ways to print the special <strong>OMR</strong> marks on a<br />

document. <strong>Pitney</strong> <strong>Bowes</strong> offers a PC-based product called PB<br />

FIRST that enables you to add the <strong>OMR</strong> marks to your<br />

documents so they can be read by the DI400 inserter (it also<br />

allows you to setup <strong>OMR</strong> marks for the DI350 and DI800<br />

inserters). What’s nice is that once you’ve setup PB FIRST<br />

correctly to generate the marks, the marks are printed to the<br />

proper specifications – no “experimentation” is necessary.<br />

If you have a computer/IT department in your organization, you<br />

may be able to use them also as a resource to create and print<br />

the <strong>OMR</strong> marks for you, based on the DI400 <strong>OMR</strong> specifications<br />

given in this chapter (see pages 4-25 and 4-26).<br />

Additional information on implementing <strong>OMR</strong> marks can be<br />

found in <strong>Pitney</strong> <strong>Bowes</strong> publication SV40193 and the <strong>OMR</strong><br />

template that are included with your DI400 inserter.<br />

IMPORTANT: Unless you (or your organization) has had<br />

previous experience working with <strong>OMR</strong> marks or PB FIRST,<br />

we recommend that you have a <strong>Pitney</strong> <strong>Bowes</strong> Consultant<br />

setup your <strong>OMR</strong> marks for you (at a cost to be estimated).<br />

<strong>Pitney</strong> <strong>Bowes</strong> does not cover the implementation of <strong>OMR</strong><br />

marks on your documents under the standard support<br />

agreements for the DI400 inserter.<br />
