Cost per Page Calculator - Great Response

There has been a great deal of interest in this tool including quite a few questions directed to me.

Due to this high level of activity I am going to expand on its access and usage:

• To access this tool you need to follow the link below, go to the Sign Up page and fill in the required data completely but ignore the credit card information, it is not necessary
  
• I have intentionally kept the registration process manual at this point so you will not have immediate access, we will inform you by e-mail. Due to the overwhelming response we are running a bit behind here at the outset
  
• I am still editing the data base to enable the automated price calculations so not all devices are ready to go but all of the HP LaserJets and Color LaserJets should be
  
• All supply prices are for OEM supplies and obtained from the manufacturers web store or in a few cases from an alternate web store such as CDW
  
• Cartridge yields have been obtained from manufacturer web sites
  
• The default page coverage assumption is 9% per color channel
  
• You have the ability to customize all three of these fields to accomodate your personal needs, cartridge cost, cartridge page yield and coverage assumption
  
• You can also select an alternate toner/ink cartridge by clicking on the file folder icon to the left of the cartridge description. This is especially important when you are customizing the report for the cartridge types your client is actually using. In the case of Lexmark printers there may be as many as eight toner cartridges available for a monochrome laser printer
  

Now that we have this tool up and running we hope you use it and provide us with your valuable, constructive feedback. There are several folks who have been testing it and it does appear to work well for those devices currently supported.

Please provide your feedback directly to me at pagecost@buscomgroup.com.

Once again, here is the temporary link to the tool; I will eventually be moving it to a permanent URL.
