The cost per a page is the amount that Print Manager Plus charges per each page printed. To set the amount charged per a page follow the steps below
Open the Print Manager Plus and browse to the [Printers] tab locate the print queue you would like to change the cost on right-click and select [Edit]
A new dialog will appear with a variety of settings, select [Cost Settings] on the left and you will see three options:
1) Use a Cost Profile - This options allow you to setup a cost profile that will be used for the selected print queue.
2) Standard Cost Options - This option allow you to create base cost for B/W, Color and cost by page size.
3) Advanced Cost Options - This option provides more advanced settings that include B/W, Color, Page Size, Linear Length, Area, Duplex and Economode Discounts
For this example we will setup a Cost Profile for the selected print queue.
Selecting [Use a Cost Profile] you will see that there is a default cost profile that indicates .05 for B/W and .10 for Color.
*Note: you can create or edit your cost profiles by clicking [Edit] or [New] to the right of the cost profile drop-down.
