Learn how to print accounting reports on the mailstation and mailstation2.

Alert: The USPS has discontinued all IBI meter technology, and many devices must be returned and withdrawn from service by the end of 2024. If your device is affected, new business rules will disrupt your mailing operation. Check Your Account to see if your device is affected and contact your Account Representative to migrate to a compliant solution.

You can view and print accounting reports either directly from the meter or from a computer using the PC Meter Connect software. You may wish to print accounting reports for your records before you clear or delete an account, at times such as at the end of a fiscal year.
