<p>A system for evaluating barcoded mail which includes an imaging device (32) to provide an image corresponding to an image of a barcode or an address of a mail piece. The system also includes an output device (60, 62) for providing evaluation results and a processor receiving the image signal from the imaging device. The processor (50) generates an address information signal corresponding to the barcode and an address block image signal corresponding to the address. The processor (50) provides an output signal to the output device (60, 62) in accordance with the address information signal (350) and the address block (352) image signal. The output device responds to the output signal to provide an address information image corresponding to the address information signal and an address block image corresponding to the address block image signal for visual comparison (60). The system also evaluates an image of a mail piece barcode to detect and categorize barcode defects for reporting with a visual facsimile of the barcode.</p> |
