Postal Requirements

The meter on your mailing system is licensed by your Postal Authority and you must follow some basic requirements.

Mail must have the correct date and postage amount in the meter stamp.

Always ensure that your meter stamp prints are clear and complete. Poor prints may result in your Postal Authority being unable to offer the service you have requested and if the prints are illegible the items may be rejected by your Postal Authority. If in doubt regarding the quality of your meter prints, refer to Section 7, Printer Maintenance.

If you move to another address, you must update the Postal Authority records. Call your local machine supplier for advice.

Each time you add postage to the machine, the Data Centre automatically performs a postal inspection. If the interval between inspections has been too long, your machine's display prompts "Inspection Due". Perform an inspection as instructed in Section 5, Adding Postage to satisfy the inspection requirement by either adding postage or checking your balance. Eventually, if an inspection is not carried out, the display prompts "Inspection Required". You won't be able to use your mailing system until you add postage or connect to the Data Centre.
