Locating the Model or Serial Number on your meter

Finding the Serial Number on your Meter

The 7-digit meter serial number is the identification number that is registered with Canada Post™ for the postage meter license. It is different from the Product Code Number (PCN), which identifies the meter model using letters and numbers. For example: K700, or DM100i™.

Three Ways to Find the Serial Number on any meter:

1. On the meter ID tag - The meter serial number is located on an identification tag on the back, bottom of the meter or inside the top panel.  Depending on the meter model, it may be referred to as a Meter Number, a Serial Number, Meter Stamp Serial Number, or a similar variation.
2. On the indicia/meter stamp - The meter serial number can also be found on the indicia/meter stamp, which varies from model to model.
   
   
   
   
3. On a printed report - The meter serial number can be identified through a printed report, such as a funds report, where the meter number is labeled as either a PB Serial No or a PBI Serial No.
