Abstract
A mounting fixture for mounting a postage meter to a mail-handling machine is disclosed. The fixture features a pivotable housing which pivots to disengage the postage meter from its printing position. A pair of elongated tracks are disposed upon the housing, which then guides and allows the postage meter to be pulled forward to an accessible position. In this position, the meter is easily set to a new register reading for purposes of adding funds to the machine.
