Verified step by step guidance

Understand the context of the question: The problem is asking for a financial reason related to the use of a postage meter. This means we need to focus on cost-related benefits rather than operational or aesthetic advantages.

Analyze each option provided: Evaluate whether each option directly impacts financial aspects such as cost savings or efficiency improvements.

Option 1: 'It can reduce overall mailing costs by providing discounted postage rates.' This is a financial reason because discounted rates directly lower expenses.

Option 2: 'It allows for more colorful envelope designs.' This is not a financial reason; it relates to aesthetics and branding rather than cost.

Option 3: 'It eliminates the need for employee training.' While this might save time, it does not directly address financial savings related to mailing costs. Option 4: 'It guarantees faster mail delivery by the postal service.' Faster delivery is operational, not financial. Therefore, the correct financial reason is option 1.
