Pitney Bowes DM800 Ink Cartridges

Pitney Bowes DM800 Printer Review

The Pitney Bowes DM800 (or DM800i) is more than a simple postage meter, it is an entire digital mailing system that can accept a variety of envelope sizes. The machine weighs and seals, and can even print the proper postage with its inkjet system, which utilizes inexpensive Pitney Bowes DM800 printer ink. Its maximum speed is up to 210 letters per minute.

The DM800 still relies on the user to handle the loading and unloading of media. In fact, reaching its top speed relies on an experienced user being able to work quickly. In any case, it will provide a quicker and simpler solution to doing each piece by hand.

The machine's design is a bit more compact than other models in its line, though it still takes up quite a lot of space. It measures 18.5x48x19 inches (HWD) and the optional power stacker extends the width to 54 inches. The weight of 78 pounds means it will require more than one person to set it up or move it.

The IntelliLink Control Centre is the part of the device that includes the control panel. It connects to a standard phone line for managing postage credits, updates, and more. The control unit can even be detached from the machine to make it easier to connect. Multiple accounts can be added and tracked for accounting purposes.

The unit uses only one Pitney Bowes DM800 printer ink cartridge, which contains the color red, as it is only responsible for postage printing. It features a design common to many inkjet models, which keeps the cost of Pitney Bowes ink cartridges low.

The DM800 has a lot of great features, but not at the sacrifice of being easy to use. Its simple control panel makes processing mail quick and easy, and the low cost of Pitney Bowes ink makes it economical to operate and maintain.
