Pitney Bowes DA550 Printer Review

With the ability to print as many as 9,000 addresses on envelopes or postcards in an hour and about 75,000 addresses in a month, the Pitney Bowes DA550 will instantly improve the process of sending outgoing mail. Not only will this system minimize the manpower required to perform this essential but time-consuming task, the DA550 will also provide convenience and organization for any office with an extensive mailing list.

This is not a small inkjet machine, as it weighs about 50 pounds and will require a decent amount of space on a table or desk. The unit measures 14.7x16.2x21.7 inches, while optional components such as a larger stacker will add even more bulk.

When it comes to paper capacity, as many as 450 envelopes or 1,000 postcards can be held in the input tray and almost the same amount can be held in the stacker. There are various printing modes that will alter the speed and quality, including the desired resolution created by the AddressRight DA550 printer ink. To reach the maximum speed capacity, the resolution must be set low. In fact, a Light mode can be set to automatically minimize the amount of Pitney Bowes DA550 ink used per address.

The Envelope Designer software gives users the opportunity to use different layouts and designs when printing addresses and the DA550 can print barcodes certified by the postal service. An automatic stacker will ensure the finished products are organized and ready to send. An optional dryer can be installed to help the Pitney Bowes DA550 printer ink dry more quickly so text does not get smudged when stacking.

Affordability is always an important topic for a business environment. Replacement AddressRight DA550 ink cartridges will be needed eventually and using compatible Pitney Bowes DA550 ink cartridges will save quite a bit compared to OEM versions.

Speed, organization and efficiency can be expected from the DA550. This inkjet address printer and mailing system will simplify the process of batch mailing without burning a hole in the budget.
