Printing the Print Volume Report

You can check the total number of printed pages at the printer control panel, on the Configuration
Page, and in CentreWare Internet Services. Three meters are available: Total Impressions, Color
Impressions, and Black Impressions. The billing meter counts the number of pages printed properly.
1-side prints, including N-up, are counted as one impression, and 2-sided prints, including N-up, are
counted as two. During 2-sided printing, if an error occurs after one side prints properly, it is counted as
one.
Color documents converted using an ICC profile on applications with the Color (Auto) setting can print
in color, even if displayed in black and white. The data prints in color even if it seems to be black and
white data on the monitor. In that case, the number of Color Impressions is increased.
Note: Grayscale images printed with the composite black setting count as color pages because
color consumables are used. Composite black is the default setting on most printers.
When doing automatic 2-sided printing, you can insert a blank page automatically depending on the
settings in the application. In this case, the blank page is counted as one page.
