How do you recalibrate a digital postage scale?

Answer by  mb (5482)

There should be a button labeled "Tare". Make sure the scale is on a flat even surface with no weight and hit "Tare".

Most electrical devices of that kind have a recessed reset button. Press it with a pen and that should restore it to the original default settings.

Turn on the scale and place an object on top of the scale for calibration. If your scale isn't giving accurate weights, then adjust the calibration to its' right weight. If you use the scale frequently, you may have to recalibrate the scale once a week but not as much if you don't the scale often.

Most Digital Postage Scales have a reset button that allows you to reset the entire scale. Sometimes this works. If not though, you can try to calibrate it with a weight. There should be controls to do this too. Check the scale thoroughly for reset and controls.
