*Originally posted by Synthesis *www.pcmagazine.com and some other related sites to find the costs per page on most inkjet printers.
They run between 3 - 50 cents depending on the coverage.
Laser printers cost between 2 - 10 cents per page depending on the coverage.
In the laser printing world, vendors base their yields and costs per copy on 5% coverage. Keep in mind that average coverage has increased in the last 7 years because of the web (more graphics), and more image intensive applications (PowerPoint, emailed photos, clip art, ect).
The cost per page on most copiers, including machine depreciation is between 1 - 1.5 cents. If the machine is older than 3-4 years it may be closer to 0.8 cents (the machine is already depreciated).
If the copier is digital (scans once, prints many) it will maintain about 75% of the quality of the original print (assuming a decent quality inkjet paper was used; otherwise the inkjet won’t look too great anyway).
Let me know if you want more info. I’m a consultant for a company otherwise known as “The big red X”. **
Well if that didnt kill the mood, I don’t know what will!
And in contrast to the gold chain wearing studmuffin, there is the occasional Poindexter with a pocket protector taped to his bare chest who gets excited by talking about laser printers while everyone is gettin Roman.
