What You Need to Know

Since your postage meter (Postal Security Device) is licensed by the United States Postal Service (USPS), you must follow a few basic require- ments.

USPS Requirements

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

•Metered mail must bear the ZIP Code location of the post office where the postage meter (Postal Security Device) is registered.

•If you move to another ZIP Code location, you must update the ZIP Code. You can do this by calling your local Pitney Bowes district office.

Safety Requirements

•Each time you refill your postage meter (Postal Security Device) through the modem, the Postage By Phone® Meter Payment System computer automatically performs a postal inspection. If the postage meter in your mailing machine has not detected a modem refill transac- tion at certain intervals, the message “Inspection Required” appears on the main screen of the IntelliLink® Control Center. (The system will then prompt you to connect to Pitney Bowes and perform an inspec- tion.)

•The postage tape you use must meet USPS specifications.

WARNING! Follow normal safety precautions for all office equip- ment whenever using the DM800™ Series Digital Mailing System.

•Read all instructions before you attempt to operate the machine.
