The present invention is directed to a system and method for providing confirmation and messaging relating to the distribution of a mail piece within a mailing system. It provides both operational knowledge and quality assurance by pragmatically defining the gathering and flow of information in one or all organization units and allows for seamless knowledge dissemination into and within the organization. The automated drive unit and the suction ring are configured for releasable attachment when said cutter head is received in the entrance guideway of the suction ring. A channel running through the valve spool provides communication with the second end of the valve spool and the gas balance chamber. The tension members compress the leaf springs to provide a compressive load to the fuel cell stack. The control circuit controls the scanning module to proceed with a scan operation.
