Printing notices

["April Goff - Eaton" <goffap at mail dot portagecounty dot lib dot oh dot us>]

Hi, We're looking into changing the way we print our delinquency notices and bills.  We're using the 3 part self-mailers on an old Epson LQ 850.  We've seen that some places use self-sealing and pressure seal mailers.  Others still use the 3 part self-mailers, and others print to plain paper and use envelopes.  What were the deciding factors for your choice?  I've seen a wide range of costs for each way.  What equipment did you purchase?  We print between 500 and 1000 notices a week.  We have up to 4 items per overdue and 1 item per bill.  But if we go with any of the other 3 ways we should reduce our # of notices.  If it matters, we're on Millennium Silver.
Thanks for your help!
