What is a … Postage Meter, Base, Feeder, Sealer, Stacker, Tape Dispenser, Scale ?

0

A postage meter is a mailing system that prints postage directly on the envelope (or an adhesive tape) for any type of mail — first, second, third, or fourth class; air mail, registered mail, special delivery, or other special services. Meter The meter is the critical part of your mailing system. It prints the indicia and stores the postage. Base The base is essentially an envelope handler, designed to transport the item to be stamped through the meter. The four main parts of a base include the feeder, sealer, stacker, and tape dispenser. Feeder A feeder guides envelopes through the meter. Although you can get a low-end meter without a feeder, feeding a large mailing by hand can be pretty tedious. Sealer A sealer moistens the envelope flap and closes it. Stacker A stacker clears mail from the machine after it is stamped. Low-end stackers are no more than a catch tray placed at the edge of the meter. Power stackers can stack more envelopes by using a conveyor mechanism to move the stamp
