ABSTRACT:
An optical reader system configured as a kit for retrofitting the input consoles of existing letter sorting machines of the type used by the U.S. Postal Service. Such machines require that an operator, stationed at a console, enter sorting information for each mail piece, by way of a manually actuated keyboard. The present invention expands the processing capabilities of the machines by permitting the machine reading of mail pieces that have had their address information pre-coded in machine readable form on their respective faces. At the same time, the automatic function does not impair or modify the usual operator controlled console operation when non-coded mail is being processed.
