"We make four newsletter mailings per year, of about 1,300 pieces each. Our newsletters are printed on both sides of a single 11x17" sheet, then folded in half to make a four-page, one-sheet mailing piece. We then manually fold it in thirds so it will fit into a #10 envelope.If the machine also helps us with insertion, etc., that would be something we might be willing to pay for. We are looking for a machine that will relieve us of the chore of manually folding our (already once folded) newsletters so they fit into the #10 envelope. Our budget is $100-$500 for the machine. We don't mind feeding the sheets manually, since that's way better than folding them by hand."
