Every country has its own regulations regarding the use of postage meters. To find out about the regulations which apply to your postage meter, check with the post office in your country.
Most countries operate the “Credit Locking” system whereby postage credit is entered in the postage meter either at the post office or remotely over a telephone line
Although this guide primarily covers the use of the mailing machine, it also refers to the postage meter. Since several different Pitney Bowes postage meters work with the mailing machine, the postage meter you have may be different from the one pictured in this guide. However, the general purpose and functionality of postage meters are similar.
For specific information on your postage meter, see the operating guide provided with the meter or call your local Pitney Bowes office or dealer.
