Know Your Total Cost of Ownership
How much is your organization really spending to print documents? You can audit your organization’s printers yourself to determine this. Here’s how.
Step 5. Determine the device's annual output. There are different ways to get that:
a) Use your network software.
b) Print a usage sheet straight from the device.
c) Type the device's IP address into a browser.
However, for the small desktop devices, none of these tactics may work, and you may have to make a wild educated guess. When I must do that, I use half of the manufacturer's recommended usage range. The HP 4730 I'm using for this example produces 24,273 black prints and 16,897 color prints annually, for a total of 41,170.
