2004 Trial Of ‘All In One’ Special Delivery Horizon Label
Post & Go Miscut Label Variety
A contributor to this site has reported a nice ‘Miscut’ variety from the Finchley, London Post&Go Machine, along with the receipt that is generated when the machine detects such an error. Nice One!
The receipt reads “We apologise some items could not be printed, Please present this part of receipt to a member of staff for assistance”.
