Printing a USPS SCAN Form 5630 in PitneyShip, PitneyShip Pro, or PitneyShip Enterprise
USPS Shipment Confirmation Acceptance Notice (SCAN) Form 5630 functions as a shipping manifest for the USPS. This is created after all of your shipping labels for the day have been printed. This saves time because instead of requiring USPS to scan each individual shipping label during pickup or dropoff, USPS only needs to scan SCAN Form 5630 once to upload all of that day's shipping labels to their systems. Using a SCAN form also helps ensure that all of your packages receive a USPS acceptance scan, improving visibility of your packages when you track them.
In order to print USPS SCAN forms, the USPS SCAN Form Printing option must first be enabled.
Printing a USPS SCAN form
- After you have prepared all USPS shipments you plan to send that day, select > Print SCAN Form from the menu at the top.

Reprinting a USPS SCAN form

Important: The SCAN form is dated and must be printed before 8:00 PM in your time zone. After 8:00 PM, the form for the current date will no longer be available. Labels created after 8:00 PM will appear on the next day's SCAN form. The next day's SCAN form is available after midnight. Any shipping label refunds that need to be requested must be requested before printing the SCAN form. Once the SCAN form is printed, refund requests are no longer available for labels included on the SCAN form.
