The traditional USPS Certified forms from USPS include forms PS-3800 and forms PS-3811 Domestic Return Receipt (Green Card) to be completed and affixed to each envelope. The sender would hand print the address of the recipient and your return address on both USPS cards and copy the Certified Mail tracking number onto both copies. The USPS forms were then affixed to the outside of the envelope and proper postage was placed on the envelope $5.54.
A semi-automated laser form provided software to address and print the labels. The process was nicknamed ‘peel and stick’ because each label had to be peeled from the adhesive and stuck on to each envelope. This process is still quite time consuming and requires human labor to properly affix the forms, and match up the tracking codes and file the return receipt green cards.
