Postage and Your Postage Meter
Postage is stored internally in your postage machine. When you need to add more, you simply connect your machine to an analog phone line, select the menu selection to refill postage, and specify the amount of postage you wish to download. Once you are connect- ed to the Pitney Bowes Data Centre, the postage is electronically sent to your meter via the Pitney Bowes Postage By Phone® meter payment system.
You must establish a Pitney Bowes Postage By Phone® meter pay- ment account and have funds available in it before you can down- load the funds (for postage) to your meter. There are several ways you can arrange to have funds put in your Postage By Phone® meter payment account (send in a check, direct withdrawal, establish cred- it, etc.). See the Pitney Bowes Contact List at start of this guide to call for further information.
