Digital color postmark

Digital color postmarks (DCP) are an alternative first day cancel provided by the US Postal Service. They are colorful issue-specific cancels done by high quality laser printers. There is a small charge for each cancel. The first such cancels appeared c.2005 and have been available for every USPS since.
