Can QRCoder generate the USPS Intelligent Mail (USPS 4-State Customer Code) image?

Intelligent Mail, also known as IM, the 4-State Customer Barcode, is a postal barcode adopted by the United State Postal Service for sorting and tracking letters and flats.

FWIW I found an old library here https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/20579/USPS-OneCode-Barcodes

This library is specifically for encoding QR codes... did you want the IM data in a QR code format? If so, can you provide a sample of what that would be and/or a specification reference?

No, as the name states QRCoder can only create QR codes. Other barcode formats are not supported.
