Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0459159A2] A franking module is installed in a personal computer in place of a slot-in floppy disk drive module. The technically available means of the personal computer are used to provide not only control of the franking operations but also, along with a telecommunications module and a modem, remote value calculation and remote value specification. For this purpose, the franking module contains a processor system and a printer, as well as memories for charge calculations and a memory for graphic data to produce an advertising print. <IMAGE>
