          Application No. 09/134,977                                                  


               b) writing a record identifying said misprocessed                      
               mailpiece in a common data store accessible by a data                  
               processing system;                                                     
               c) inputting said record to said data processing                       
               system;                                                                
               d) said data processing system regenerating a control                  
               document associated with said misprocessed mailpiece in                
               accordance with said record, said control document                     
               specifying assembly of said misprocessed mailpiece;                    
               e) inputting said regenerated control document to said                 
               inserter system;                                                       
               f) said inserter system assembling another mailpiece                   
               substantially in accordance with specifications for                    
               said misprocessed mailpiece on said regenerated control                
               document.                                                              
               The following references are relied on by the examiner:                
          Schneiderhan             5,067,088              Nov. 19, 1991               
          Baker et al. (Baker)     5,175,691              Dec. 29, 1992               
               In what we shall consider as a first stated rejection,                 
          claims 15, 19, 21 through 25 and 27 stand rejected under                    
          35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as being anticipated by Baker.  In a second              
          stated rejection, this reference is used to reject claims 15, 19            
          and 21 through 27 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  In a third stated                 
          rejection, the examiner utilizes Schneiderhan to reject under               
          35 U.S.C. 102(b) claims 15 through 18, 21 and 24.  Schneiderhan             
          in turn is used as the basis to reject claims 15 through 18 and             
          21 through 25 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  Finally, in a fifth stated            

                                          2
