A postage printing system includes a printer and a postage meter. The printer includes a memory, a print device for printing a postal indicia and a controller in operative communication with the printer memory and the print device. The postage meter includes a memory and is physically separable from and in operative communication with the printer. The printer controller detects a fault condition, stores a record of the fault condition in a history file within the printer memory and, following a successful mutual authentication between the printer and the postage meter, uploads the history file from the printer memory to the postage meter memory for subsequent reporting to a data center.
