Usage Costs
- Know the cost of each supply and its anticipated yield.
- The anticipated yield of supplies is usually based on 5% print coverage (5% print coverage is equal to about one page with 20 sentences in 12 point type).
- If you typically print more than 5% coverage, your yield for each toner will be less and your supplies cost per page will be higher.
- Want to find out how much coverage one of your own documents has? Go to Free Coverage Calculator to download a 30-day trial version of software that will show you the % coverage for any of your documents. You can also go to Page Coverage for more information on determining page yields.
- Don’t forget to add maintenance kits, fusers etc.., divided by their yields.
- Generally, the lower the aquisition cost for the device, the higher the cost per page for supplies.
- For service, take the cost of a service contract and divide it by the number of anticipated prints/copies for the period of coverage. Total all of the supplies and service costs per page and you’ll have a total estimated service/supply cost per page.
Acquisition Costs
- Take the purchase price divided by the number of months of estimated service divided by the estimated pages you will copy/print per month.
- Add the acquisition and usage cost per page to get total cost per page for the device. Or, call DocuSense and we’ll help you do the calculation.
