  2. Click [Add].

  3. On the [General] tab, enter Pricing Table Name and its description.

  4. On the [Target Devices/Groups] tab, specify the devices or groups to which to apply the pricing table.

    1. Click [Add group] or [Add Devices].

Pricing Calculations

  • The pricing calculation for non wide-format devices is (page count * rate).
  • When the job data from an embedded device includes both Width and Height for the paper size, the job is considered wide format. The cost is calculated as ((bw/color mm2) * rate).

Pricing Table Application for Departments/Devices/Users/Group

Note the following when applying pricing tables.

  • When [Apply Pricing By] is set to [Users and Departments] in [System] → [Server Settings] → [User Management and Accounting Settings], the [Target Users/Departments] tab is displayed instead of the [Devices and Device Groups] tab.

    In this case, specify the users or departments to which to apply the pricing table in Step 4.

  • The pricing table specified for the device/user has priority over the table for the group/ department.
  • If a pricing table is not specified for a device/user, the table for the group/department to which the device/user belongs is applied.
  • If a pricing table is not specified for both the device and group or user and department, the table of the group/department closest to the device/user is applied. For example, the pricing table for the "10.85" group is applied on devices assigned with the IP addresses "10.85.30.xx" when a pricing table is specified for the "10.85" group but not for the "10.85.30" group in the "IP Address" category.
  • You can specify only one table for a device, group, user, or department. If you specify a new table for a device, group, user, or department, the existing table is automatically invalidated.
