Actually Rob you can print these on plain paper, or plain envelopes, #9, #10,
#11, etc. The software has a built in address checker. It does print a
barcode and the zip plus four for the corrected address.
It has templates for various Avery labels also. They do cost money. I have
also printed on plain paper and taped them to the box.
I looked at e-stamp but you have to buy their kit for $40 or whatever. You
also pay a higher minimum service fee ($4.99 e-stamp.com vs. $1.99 stamps.com)
Tomorrow I am planning on printing some sample postage on the free Priority
mail address labels. I'll report how they do.
