ABSTRACT:
A postage meter is disclosed which features a rotatable printing drum. The print wheel(s), registers, and postage value selector are all supported by the drum to provide a reduction in parts. The postage meter is more reliable due to the reduction of parts, as well as being more compact and less costly to manufacture. The print wheel(s) of the meter are offset from a valid print position when the drum is in a rest position, in order to provide protection against "wiping off". The postage value selector is easily operable by the postage meter user and is conveniently disposed for ease of access.
