US Patent:

6517265, Feb 11, 2003

Filed:

May 7, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/850598

Inventors:

John V. Evans - Brookfield CT
Al Ewers - Colchester CT
David L. Rich - Shelton CT

Assignee:

Pitney Bowes Inc. - Stamford CT

International Classification:

B41J 242

US Classification:

400 74, 101 91, 347 7, 705408

Abstract:

In a postage meter, funds are requested from an accounting unit and transferred to a print buffer when a print registration sensor detects a mailpiece at a location that is sufficiently downstream of the printing mechanism in order to enable the meter sufficient time to compose the indicia. A presentation sensor detects the presence of the mailpiece just prior to printing the indicia; and a printing mechanism prints the indicia if the mailpiece is properly aligned with the printing mechanism, or stores the indicia data in a secure register if the mailpiece is not properly aligned with the printing mechanism to enable the operator to obtain a refund.

Filed:

Dec 22, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/470585

Inventors:

Flavio M. Manduley - Woodbury CT

David L. Rich - Shelton CT
Stephen J. Sabulis - Shelton CT

Assignee:

Pitney Bowes Inc. - Stamford CT

International Classification:

H04J 317

US Classification:

370433

Abstract:

A system for facilitating communication between customer equipment modules and a third party equipment module through use of the data transfer module is described. The data transfer module includes a communication port for communicating with the third party equipment module, as well as ports and a connector for communicating with customer equipment modules. The data transfer module is portable and allows for the transfer of information to and from itself and any customer equipment module while disconnected from the third party equipment module and, likewise, information can be transferred between the data transfer module and the third party equipment module while disconnected from the customer equipment modules. This portability and ability to transfer information to the customer equipment modules without simultaneous communication to the third party equipment module facilitates use of the system when customer equipment modules are not easily accessible to external communication sources.

US Classification:

235381, 235495, 705403, 705 59, 705 60

Abstract:

A system and method for instantly printing PC postage before establishing a postage meter account. The method includes the steps of a meter vendor obtaining a first meter license from the Post for a first meter; loaning the use of a first meter licensed in the customers zip code to a customer; requesting a second meter license for the customer; initializing the first meter for use by the customer; and transferring the first meter to the Customers meter license when the second meter license is received. Alternatively, when the second meter license is received a second meter is assigned to the customer and the first meter is reassigned to the meter vendor.
