Canada Post Requirements
Since your postage meter (Postal Security Device) is licensed by Canada Post, you must follow a few basic requirements.
- Mail must have the correct date and postage amount in the postage indicium.
- Metered mail must bear the Postal Code location of the post office where the postage meter (Postal Security Device) is registered.
- If you move to another Postal Code location, you must update the Postal Code. You can do this by calling PB Postage at 1-800-672-6937.
- Each time you refill your postage meter (Postal Security Device) through the LAN, the PB Postage Meter Payment System computer automatically performs a postal inspection. If the postage meter in your mailing machine has not detected a refill transaction at certain intervals, the message “Inspection Required” appears on the Run Mail screen and then prompts you to connect to Pitney Bowes and perform an inspection.
- The postage tape you use must meet Canada Post specifications.
