Neopost Machines Used on Newspaper Wrappers[edit | edit source]
Whilst postal regulations normally required the frank to be printed at the top right hand corner of the mail item, this was not always possible on newspaper wrappers due to the limited space available for printing. One solution was to print the frank across the right hand side of the wrapper, to which end Neopost modified several machines for use by newspaper companies.
