Checking Page Counts
The total number of printed pages can be checked at the control panel. Three meters are available: Total
Impressions, Color Impressions, and Black Impressions.
The billing meter counts the number of pages printed properly. Single side print (including N-up) is
counted as one impression, and 2-sided print (including N-up) is counted as two. During duplex printing, if
an error occurs after one side is printed properly, it is counted as one.
When printing color data, that has been converted by using ICC profile on an application, with the Color
(Auto) setting, the data is printed by color even if it seems to be black and white data on the monitor. In that
case, Color Impressions is increased.
When doing 2-sided printing, a blank page may be inserted automatically depending on the settings of the
application. In this case, the blank page is counted as one page.
