Postage meters

PostBase One

PostBase One is the largest meter FP makes and the only one in its class that feeds mail vertically, the way the Postal Service's own equipment does. Standing envelopes on edge is what makes it so reliable on mixed mail: sizes and thicknesses that would jam a flat feeder run through without presorting.

Add the in-line dynamic weighing option and you load a stack of mixed mail, press start, and PostBase One weighs, rates, seals and meters each piece on its way through at up to 100 pieces a minute, or 150 when it is not weighing.

PostBase One

Mailing made easy, at mailroom scale.

The high-capacity automatic feeder, the vertical feed path and the dynamic scale make presorting a thing of the past. Load the mail and stand by while PostBase One allocates the right postage to each piece from its size and weight. The 4.7-inch color touchscreen is icon-driven and simple to learn.

It is a USPS IMI-compliant meter, and it is built for confidentiality: a sensor validates every envelope that passes through, and the pressure sealer closes each flap tightly. A built-in label dispenser handles thick mail and packages, with an external scale up to 15 lb for weighing them.

The design is modular, so the system adapts as your mail changes, and it takes the largest pieces that come your way. Cost accounting covers up to 500 departments, and MailOne 2.0 adds reporting on postage spend.

PostBase One or PostBase Pro DS?

Both feed stacks of mixed mail and weigh on the fly. PostBase One is the bigger machine: vertical feed, 150 pieces a minute, 500 departments and room for the largest pieces. Pro DS is the desktop-format alternative at 90 letters a minute weighed, with 250 departments. Volume and piece size decide it.
