Hi
Bit of a long shot, but does anyone know where I can buy compatible ink for a Pitney Bowes DM200 franking machine?
I've found plenty in the USA but finding it hard to find suppliers in the UK.
Any help would be great!

Hi Jamie,
The best I can find in the UK , unfortunatly they dont sell the model your looking for! is
http://www.cartridgeco.co.uk/acatalog/Pitney_Bowes.html
They sell the franking labels, plus some compatible cartridges, they might be able to get hold of some for you, or know of some where.
Link to ebay- there was one indexed in the lycos.co.uk search for the dm200 model, but it must have been ages ago when it was for sale as its not now indexed on ebay!!
http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&cgiurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.co.uk%2Fws%2F&query=pitney+bowes&ebaytag1code=3&shortcut=2&currdisp=1&maxRecordsReturned=300&maxRecordsPerPage=50&SortProperty=MetaEndSort
This probably doesnt help you much!! but hope it might do!!
Thanks Chocpiggy

Try Pitney Bowes direct for their own consumables! www.pitneybowes.co.uk have on line store and for the DM200 the price of the cartrdige on their on line shop is £53 55 for orders of 3 or less units and a few pounds less ( £51.95) for the 4 or more orders. We have found to our cost with bulk mailing using fraking machines that it really pays to use the same brand as the manufacturer rather than a cheaper imitation.

Yes they are very pricey but we lost a franking machine through using an alternative ink which clogged up the mechanism and the comparable cost was very high! Having said that we have had luck with the following supplier for HP printer ink which was excellent so let us know how you get on.
