How does the system operate?
The system consists of a central computer situated in our Data
Centre which holds details of the funds available in your Postage by
Phone account. Your DM220i communicates with the Data Centre
and transfers funds from your Postage by Phone account into your
meter.
Preparing to Refill with Postage
Adding postage funds to your system is fast, easy and convenient.
Your system must be connected to a LAN, an Internet enabled PC or
an analogue phone line as described on the following pages.
Important: For printing postage, your DM220i does not have
to be connected.
However if you add funds frequently, we
recommend you keep the meter connected to your LAN, Internet
enabled PC or an analogue phone line.
