GROUP Q – Digital franks with 2D barcode edit

Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog

  • Digital meter stamps with 2-dimensional barcode first came into use in 2000 when Neopost (now Quadient) released their IJ model series in the U.S. Pitney Bowes followed in 2002 with the release of a new series of stamps from their DM series models. Francotyp-Postalia and new meter company Data-Pac followed later in the decade.
  • All the stamps in this Group include a 2-dimensional barcode. The earlier stamps contained a "Datamatrix" barcode which is square in shape. Later stamps have the more compact "IBI Lite" barcode which is a rectangle longer in one direction than the other. The Datamatrix barcode can vary in size, and the IBI Lite barcode is found both vertical and horizontal.
 


Sub-group QA – Quadient as of 2019, previously named Hasler, ASCOM Hasler, Neopost, and Neopost-Hasler edit

  • The stamps in this sub-group can vary widely is size and shape. What they all have in common is manufacturer name imprint Neopost, Hasler, ASCOM or quadient, and meter number prefix 01, 04, or N04.
  • Known meter models are in the following series': IJ, IN, IS, PostLink, PowerPost, and WJ. Some stamps remain to be identified to a model.
  • First seen in late 2000.
