A system and method for printing multiple postage indicia, such as an
outbound and/or an associated return postage meter stamp, including a
desired postage amount, onto a document or label is described. A
processor based system is programmed to interact with a customer to
produce the desired postage indicia and to print multiple ones of the
indicia substantially contemporaneously. The indicia may include
information to allow their use at a later date and/or from a location
other than where they are produced.
