Printing envelopes in SendPro Online or PitneyShip

Envelopes can be printed on most inkjet or laser printers. In the classic version of SendPro, envelopes must be printed using the SendPro Online software. In the new version, PitneyShip, envelope printing requires that DeviceHub be installed and configured.

The postage value printed is as-is and is not a USPS Forever Stamp. If USPS postal rates change, you can print a postage correction stamp which can be used with an already printed stamp to add additional postage.
