Creating custom printer settings for PitneyShip or PitneyShip Pro

When printing stamp sheets, #10 or #9 envelopes, you may have to make changes to your printer's default settings, which may affect other programs. To avoid changing settings back and forth between PitneyShip or PitneyShip Pro and other programs, we recommend that you install a duplicate instance of your printer that is dedicated to printing from PitneyShip or PitneyShip Pro.
