Relay Inserter Introduction

The Relay 3000 and 4000 Inserters offer touch screen functionality and

barcode scanning. The touch screen is standard on the Relay 4000 and

an option for the Relay 3000. The touch screen is necessary for barcode

scanning, which is an option for both systems.
Touch screen technology makes it easy to set up jobs and use the inserter.

Enhanced barcode scanning decodes barcode information and enables

the inserter to maintain the integrity of your mailpiece.

NOTE: The Relay Inserter touchscreen is a WiFi enabled device. If clients

choose to utilize this network connection it is the responsibility of the client

to ensure that the settings adhere to their IT department standards.
