Postage machine supplies require replenishing from time to time. At some point as a small business owner, you decided that making multiple trips to the post office for your mailing was a waste of time. To perform mailing on site, you purchased a postage machine. After installing the machine, you need postage meter ink for operation.

Once your postage machine ink runs low, have a replacement cartridge ready to use. How much mailing you perform will determine the amount of ink for postage machines you need to buy.

1. Find out the type of postage machine ink cartridges that works with your model. Most small business owners have a Pitney Bowes Postage Meter. You need to find the official postage machine cartridges or matching replacement types.

2. Purchase your postage machine ink cartridges. Find a retailer that sells postage machine supplies and place your order for additional postage ink cartridges through them.

3. Install the postage machine ink cartridge. Follow the directions provided with your machine to replace the ink. Always keep several postage meter ink cartridges available for backup use.


Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Discover the type of postage machine ink cartridges used by your meter


When you buy your postage meter, you should have a manual included with your purchase. Save this manual and refer to it for information on the postage machine cartridge used to print out postage.

I recommend: Look at the different brands of postage meters on the Pitney Bowes site to see the type of ink they use for operation. If you own a Neopost brand machine, go to their site to learn about the postal machine ink cartridges their machines take.

Buy the official Pitney Bowes brand ink for postage machines


To make sure the postage machine cartridge works, you may want to invest in one of the name brands. If you get the red ink from Pitney Bowes for your postage machine, you're guaranteed approval from the USPS.

I recommend: Get Pitney Bowes postage machine ink from Supply Depot. On Macro Solutions, you’ll find sales often on the official Pitney Bowes brand postage meter ink cartridges.

Get generic mailing machine ink


To save money, you may want to consider using the generic versions of postage meter ink. In most cases, these mailing machine ink cartridges work in the same manner as the name brand types.

I recommend: Through Swift Ink, you can get big savings on postage machine ink cartridges. Although they are not made by name brand postage meter manufacturers, they follow the same specifications. Find universal postage machine ink on the Mail-Quip website.
