Permit Imprint Piece Count  
Verify the piece weight of your mailing.
Identical weight pieces for Permit Imprint mailings must be verified (by weight) to ensure that the correct postage has been paid. Acceptance clerks must verify piece counts, gross weight, and net weights to confirm that the piece count is accurate.

The MERLIN™ program weighs each piece and calculates the number of pieces based on the net weight of the mailing divided by its piece weight.

There are two reports related to Permit Imprint Piece Count:
 
Business Mail Acceptance Worksheet (PS Form 8040x)
is used for identical permit imprint mailings only.
