USPS_patch_may14-2007b.zip Trouble with weight

Hello all,

I added the patch on my ZC running 1.3.6
& on the estimates its showing 3.4 lbs for a 1 lb item on all items just about?

Anyone have these types of issue?

Devon

Sounds like your tare settings are set to add 3lbs automatically.

Hi Dr. Byte,

Yes, I just checked and its set to:
Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight 0% + 1lb

This is confusing so I don't even know what that means but I can tell you before this switch everything was fine.

I also have to fix my zc 1.2.6 after I get this under control.
Ugh!

Any other suggestions?
Regards,
Devon

I FIXED IT! & I think it might have been the Tare.

shoot me an email with an address & if you want a sky spy or Baby bat & I'll send it to you the following day if you like.

I hope the 1.2.6 is just as easy. I do know about the slight code change I will need to make.

Okay so you are wanting to add 1 pound on your Tare weight for your boxes, correct?
