If you own a printer, the calculation of cost per page is important. Or else, you will end up spending too much!
And, no one likes to spend their money on silly expenses. So, in this piece of information, we will see how much it costs to print one page with your printer, the formula of cost per page, and much more.
In addition to it, some tricks to save resources and avoid unwanted printing materials!
Cartridge Price / Page Yield + Paper Cost= Cost Per Page
You might be thinking, why is it advisable to calculate Cost per Page
It’s necessary because-
‘If you are given the responsibility of managing office supplies and print budget, you should know how much it prices to print one page on your office printer.’
It’s not easy to maintain printing costs! If not monitored properly, it will mislead the cost and finally might get costlier than expected.
The cost of a printer and cartridge can mislead you, and it never confirms real printing costs. The cheaper the machine and cartridge you buy, ultimately, it will affect your budget.
We suggest you should go for a well-reviewed printer and cartridge. It will help you to the most appropriate approximation of the printing budget that you are managing.
Cost per page will tell you the approximate cost to print a page. You can keep an eye on the number of pages that are printed in one day and calculate the cost it will create in 1 month or any period.
The formula (Cartridge Price / Page Yield + Paper Cost= Cost per Page) consists of following elements.
The cost of replacing a cartridge is the highest. Buying it for the first time and fixing it inside the printer is negligible.
But replacing it is the main trouble creator. You have to count it while calculating the cost per page.
Page yield is nothing but the number of pages your printer is able to produce before replacing the cartridge.
Cartridge replacement (ink and toner both) comes into page yield rates. Usually, the box of cartridge or toner consists the information about the page yield at the dorsal side.
Samsung toner displays around 1000 page yield. While Brother Toner box displays a 3500-page yield. Some boxes do not display information. For instance, HP toner doesn’t carry information on the box.
But you can find about the page yield of HP toner from its official website.
The average cost per page in India is around 8-10 paise for black and white print and around 20-25 paise for colored print.
While if we consider the cost in dollars or cents, it is 5-8 cents for black and white print while 12-15 cents for colored printout.
Ultimately the cost is less. But that doesn’t mean we should waste papers by printing out what is not useful.
Always think whether the information or the printout that you are printing. Is it really necessary? If the tip of your decision turn to NOT NECESSARY, avoid taking print.
The cost is less, but still, it is not ZERO. Even the papers are not free. A tree has to sacrifice its life to give papers to the world. Not only papers but many demands of the world are fulfilled by the tree.
Hence, we can say: SAVE TREES SAVE THE PLANET!
Also, sometimes due to over usage of the printer, the machine may suffer from disfunctioning. To avoid it, use the printer only when necessary.
