6.1 Estimating Cost Per Label (Quote Tool)

Using the quote tool inside status monitor software it is possible to estimate the cost per label before
actually running job. Use the following procedure to estimate cost per label.
1. Setup the label using the instructions in Section 5 of this manual.

is based on the last label printed and is most accurate if the label was printed as a one page
print.
