ABSTRACT:
Mailing machine including a transport apparatus for feeding a mailpiece in a path of travel, a printer module including a first array of print elements and a second array of print elements and a control system in operative communication with the transport means and the printer module. The first array of print elements are positioned substantially transverse to the path of travel for printing a first portion of a postal indicia while the second array of print elements are substantially parallel to the first array of print elements and located downstream in the path of travel from the first array of print elements for printing a second portion of the postal indicia. The control system prints a test pattern on a print medium as the print medium is fed through the mailing machine and stores an indicator of a default time delay based upon the test pattern between energizing the first array of print elements and the second array of print elements so that the first and second portions of the postal indicia are in substantial alignment in a direction transverse to the path of travel.
