What You Need to Know
Since your IntelliLink Control Centre is licensed by the Postal authority in
your country, you must follow a few basic requirements.
Postal Requirements
• Mail must have the correct date and postage amount in the
digital indicia.
• The digital indicia must bear the origin postal code.
• If you move to another location, call Postage By Phone
Pitney Bowes Contact Information List for the number.
•
Each time you refill your IntelliLink Control Centre through the modem,
the Postage By Phone® computer automatically performs a postal inspection. If the IntelliLink Control Centre in your mailing machine has
not detected a modem refill transaction at certain intervals, the message “Inspection Required” appears on the main screen of the IntelliLink Control Centre. (The system will then prompt you to connect to
Pitney Bowes and perform an inspection.)
• The postage tape you use must meet post office specifications. To
order approved supplies refer to Chapter 11, Supplies and Options
®

Safety Requirements
WARNING! Follow normal safety precautions for all office equip-
ment whenever using the DM400/DM500/DM550.
• Read all instructions before you attempt to operate the machine.
• Use the equipment only for its intended purpose.
• Place the machine near an easily accessible power outlet. Avoid us
ing outlets controlled by wall switches or shared by other equipment.
• Plug the machine into a properly grounded power outlet. DO NOT re
move the power cord’s ground pin and DO NOT use a ground adapter.
• Make sure the area in front of the power outlet is free of obstruction.
• Use the power cord wall plug as the primary means of disconnecting
the machine from the AC supply.
• Turn the machine off with the switch on the left side and NOT from a
power strip.
• Do not place lighted candles, cigarettes, cigars, etc. on the machine.
• DO NOT route the power cord over sharp edges or trap it between
pieces of furniture. Make sure there is no strain on it.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO NOT attempt to re
move covers or disassemble the equipment. The housing encloses
hazardous parts. If any components are dropped or otherwise damaged, report such damage to your Pitney Bowes customer service representative.
• Keep fingers, long hair, jewelry, neck ties, and loose clothing away
from moving parts at all times.
• When removing jammed material, avoid using too much force to pre
vent personal injury and damaging equipment.
• To prevent overheating do not cover system vent openings.
• When lifting covers, wait for all parts to stop moving before placing
hands near feeder path or printer.
• Do not remove covers as they enclose hazardous parts that should
only be accessed by a Pitney Bowes Service Representative.
• Use only Pitney Bowes approved supplies, e.g., inks, tapes, and clean
ers. Call our Supply Line in Canada. Refer to the Pitney Bowes Con-
tact Information List for the number

Safety
Requirements
continued
NOTE: The DM400/DM500/DM550 requires annual cleaning by a Pitney Bowes
service representative. For continued safe operation, contact your local Pitney
Bowes office for a scheduled cleaning.
If you use an AC adapter to power the IntelliLink Control Centre when it is
off the mailing machine base:
• Use only the AC adapter designed specifically for the IntelliLink Con
trol Centre on the back of the DM400/DM500/DM550. Third-party AC
adapters may damage the IntelliLink Control Centre.
• To protect against electrical shock, plug the AC adapter into a properly
grounded power outlet.
• Do not route the AC adapter cable over sharp edges or trap between
furniture.
CAUTION! In case of an ink spill, leaking ink or excessive ink accumulation, immediately power down and disconnect the power
cord from the wall plug and call your local Pitney Bowes office for
a cleaning.
-
The IntelliLink Control Centre and its built-in Postal Security Device (PSD)
connect directly to analog telephone lines. For your protection we urge you
to follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock
and injury to persons, as well as the following:
• Never connect telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Disconnect the IntelliLink Control Centre telephone line during a light
ning storm.
• Avoid using a telephone or equipment that connects to a telephone
line during an electrical storm; there may be a remote risk of electrical
shock from lightning.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations.
• Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash
bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
• Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals unless the
telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
• Do not use the telephone or equipment connected to the telephone
line in the vicinity of a gas leak.
-
SV61964 Rev. A 1-7
1 • Read This First
• Do not connect your IntelliLink Control Centre to a digital phone line.
The device’s built-in modem is designed to work with an analog phone
line only. (Your fax machine is usually connected to an analog phone
line.) If you do not know if your line is digital, call your phone provider
for verification.
• Disconnect the telephone cord from the wall before removing the Intel
liLink Control Centre.
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of fire, use only 26 AWG telecommunication line cord either supplied with the machine or separately.
