ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for printing a new code on a reusable envelope having more than one space thereon available for printing such codes. The apparatus is comprised of an encoding means for generating a print signal representative of the new code to be printed and a print means (e.g. ink jet printer) is positioned downstream from the encoding means. A transport means moves the envelope from the encoding means and past the print means. A code detection means, e.g. bar code reader (BCR) detects any old codes on the envelope and locates the next available unused space thereon and generates a delay signal which is representative of the position of the unused space. This delay signal is sent to a delay means which, in turn, delays the print signal to the print means until the located unused space lies adjacent the print means.
