Sometimes you might need a little help with the installation of your franking 

machine, here’s a few of the more common problems and resolutions for them.

Problems connecting when using a LAN (network) connection

 

•     Check that PC’s on your network can access the internet. 

•     Check you have either the 10 or 100 indicator on the network adapter lit and 

the ACT indicator may flash. If no indicators are lit, check the network cable 

and network connection socket or router.

Problems connecting when using PC Meter Connect™

 

•     Make sure the USB cable is connected between the franking machine and the 

PC. 

•     Check that your PC is running and has an internet connection.

You cannot meet the requirements of LAN or PC Meter Connect™ connection

If you do not have a LAN connection or an internet enabled PC available to allow 

your franking machine to connect to the Pitney Bowes Data Centre, please give us 

a call on 08444 992992 to discuss other possible options.
