ABSTRACT:
The positioning assembly is used in a thermal printing postage meter having a base supporting a registration wall and a deck, and a thermal print head fixably mounted to the registration wall above a portion of the deck to define a print station for printing a postage indicia on an envelope having a leading edge positioned on the deck in the print station. The positioning assembly includes a stop lever and a position support arrangement. The position support arrangement provides support for the stop lever such that in a first or home position, the stop lever obstructs the longitudinal positioning on the deck beyond the proper print station location. The obstruction is caused by encounter of the stop lever with the leading edge of the envelope. During initiation of the print cycle, the stop lever is repositioned to a second position removing the stop lever from obstructing the leading edge of the envelope.
