ABSTRACT:
An inking device for postage meter in a high speed mailing machine is disclosed, the inking device functioning to apply ink to a printing die in the postage meter between each printing operation performed by the postage meter. The inking device includes an ink pad disposed in a reservoir and held therein by a cover member having an aperture through which an upper portion of the ink pad projects so as to contact the lower printing surface of the printing die. The configuration of the ink pad is such that there is a small channel or space between the outer edges of the ink pad and the inner edges of the aperture of the cover member so that ink which is squeeze out of the ink pad during compression thereof with the printing die will not ooze onto the upper surface of the cover member and eventually spread onto other parts of the mailing machine.
