Turning the 
Meter On
Before You Apply Power
• 
Make sure the meter is plugged into a properly grounded 
receptacle.
• 
If your're using an optional advertising slogan cartridge, 
make sure it's in place (Chapter 8). 
• 
Check that the stacker is in position (see instructions be-
low).
• 
Make sure the ribbon cassette is properly loaded (Chap-
ter 6).
• 
If you’re using a Pitney Bowes electronic scale with your 
meter, make sure it’s connected properly. Follow the in-
structions supplied with the scale. (B700 only)
• 
Add E-Z Seal
®
 to the optional moistener if necessary. 
Follow the instructions supplied with your moistener. 
(B700 only)
The instructions that follow assume the meter is set up the 
way you want. If not, go to Chapter 4 for step-by-step setup 
instructions. 
Applying Power
Insert the key and turn it 
clockwise. After you turn it on, 
the meter performs a self test 
for several seconds and oper-
ates the envelope transport 
mechanism. 
If the self test is OK, the meter 
shows the default postage 
value in the operator display 
as shown at the right (your de-
fault value may be different).
Warning Prompts
If postage funds are low, the operator display flashes “Low 
Funds” or “Insuf Funds” alternately with the postage value 
selected. If any other message appears on the display, see 
pages 7-2 and 7-3 of this guide for an explanation.
HINT: If postage funds 
are low, it's a good 
idea to refi ll your me-
ter. See Chapter 5 for 
instructions.
