More info on ink usage

More info on ink usage, based on the standard Photodisc A4 image as shown elsewhere in the blog. Unfortunately I didn't think to record the differences in settings for these prints - they are a mix of 1440 and 2880 on PSPP and PGPP.



Regarding the earlier ink usage information I posted. 16x20 refers only to the file name - these are prints I mat up to 16x20". The prints are approx 10x14".

That would seem to be about AU 10c per square inch, thus under AU$1 per A4 page.

I imagine the cost will roughly double on absorbent fine-art papers.

Pete, inkjetart.com (which I mentioned downblog) provides an Excel spreadsheet for converting this info to cost per print. It might or might not require some tweaking for the new printers and Aus$:

Thanks Nil, I'll check that out too. It's great to have the ink usage info, I'm looking forward to tightening things up cost-wise.
