    摘要: A method of forming a franking impression on a mail item and apparatus for forming the franking impression is disclosed. Material which is switchable from one stable state to another stable state by exposure to light of predetermined wavelength is deposited on the mail item while in one state and a selected region of the deposited material is exposed to light of the predetermined wavelength to effect switching of the selected region to the other state and thereby to represent franking or other secure information.

    摘要: A franking machine is disclosed which has a thermal printer for printing variable and non-variable information at a single print station. The non-variable information is printed by thermal print elements having a form corresponding to the information pattern and the variable information is printed by arrays of selectable print elements. The elements are preferably heated by passing electric current through the elements. Alternatively, the elements for non-variable information may be heated from a heated substrate.

    摘要: A franking machine is disclosed in which a digital printing device such as a thermal printer or ink jet printer is connected to accounting circuits of the franking machine so as to be controlled thereby to print franking impressions. In order to prevent unauthorised control of the printing device by application of external print signals, print data signals output by the accounting circuit are encrypted by logically combining the signals with pseudo random strings of binary bits. At the printing device the encrypted print data signals are decrypted by logically combining the encrypted print data signals with a corresponding pseudo random string of binary bits to provide print signals to control the printing device. Connections between the decryption circuit and the print head are protected from unauthorised access.

    摘要: A thermal print head has thermal print elements located along an edge of a substrate between two faces thereof. An impression roller resiliently urges a print receiving medium, for example a mail item in a postage meter, into ink transfer engagement with an ink layer of a thermal transfer ink ribbon and urges the ink ribbon into heat transfer engagement with the thermal print elements. The print head is mounted to be adjustable as to location of the line of print elements relative to the impression roller and the angular disposition of the print head. The resiliently pressure exerted by the impression is adjustable. Adjustment of the print head and of the pressure may be effected automatically in response to sensing of compressibility of the print receiving medium.

    摘要: In a secure method of consulting article delivery receipts from a remote computer terminal connected to a management computer center via a telecommunications network, a digital image of each receipt is initially input to a portable terminal that includes a radio interface for transmitting said image to the management computer center. In order to consult the digital image in secure manner from the remote computer terminal, provision is made in said remote computer terminal to use a unique key kSESSION that is different on each consultation in order to decrypt first data E1 generated in the portable terminal from the digital image, said unique key kSESSION itself being the result of the management computer center using one of its own private keys kPRIVNLS to decrypt second data E2 generated in the portable terminal from the unique key kSESSION.

    摘要: A franking machine is constructed such that only those electronic circuit elements carrying out functions for which there is a need for security are housed in a secure housing. Thus means for accounting and storing accounting data and for controlling a print head to print franking impressions is contained in the secure housing. Other elements commonly housed in the secure housing, such as keyboard and display are located exterior of the secured housing. Security for manual recredit operations is improved by securely operating the print head to print register information before and after recrediting.

    摘要: A franking machine is disclosed comprising a carriage manually movable along a bed and a print drum carried by the carriage to make rolling engagement with a mail item supported on the bed. A toothed rack extends along the length of the bed and gearing on the carriage meshes with the rack to drive the print drum and an impression roller carried by the carriage. The gearing is arranged such that as the carriage is moved in a forward direction along the bed, a mail item gripped between the print drum and the impression roller is fed along the bed in the reverse direction so that the length of traverse of the carriage, and the length of the bed, is less than the length of the franking impression to be printed.
