INK ESTIMATOR Screen
This tool estimates the total ink cost of a job, using a
sampling of the print job, without feeding or printing.
NOTICE: This feature is provided for estimation purposes
only. No guarantee of accuracy is expressed or implied.
Actual values are likely to be different than Estimated values.
Ink Cartridge Cost: Tap the entry box to enter the cost
of a single ink cartridge.
Number of Pages: Tap the entry box to enter the total
number of pages in the entire print job.
TIP:
Enter total number of pages in job, not the size of
the “sampling” that you will be sending.
After entering the above values, press Start Estimation
Mode
.
Press Cancel if you want to cancel this process.
Then send a “sampling” (up to 50 pages) of the job.
NOTE : Estimation is more accurate if you send 50 pages.
TIP: Before sending job “sampling”, it is recommended that
Purge First Piece be turned OFF. This will use less ink and
increase the accuracy of the estimate. In addition, be sure to
set the desired Print Quality in the Printer Driver.
As the printer receives each page of the job “sampling”, it will
display its progress ( Processing Page) .
After the printer finishes receiving and processing the job
“sampling”, it will display the following.
Estimated Ink Cost - based on the “Ink Cartridge Cost”,
“Number of Pages” and the job “sampling” that was sent.
