Billing For Banner Length Prints

GIntelMaven

Hey Everyone.

I'm trying to find out how banner length prints from MFPs billed in CPC agreements.

Do they click on length?
Do they click on anything over 11x17?
Do they have a blanket charge for banner regardless of length?
Do different MFRs or dealers do this differently?

I appreciate any insight you can provide on this.

Thanks,

Jake

My understanding is that the MFP "clicks" every time it measures X length (based on single/double click) pass the registration roller.

That being the case, the banner would charge for whatever length passes, so (assuming single click 11x17) if you print a 34" banner, the MFP will click 2 times.

Interestingly, if you print a 42 inch banner, the meter should click 2.47 times. Those fractions aren't visible, but the technician I spoke with assured me the machine remembers them and adds them up over time.

Thanks Jason,

This is a big help.

For everyone's enlightenment:

Konica Minolta - 11x17=2clicks, 11x18 to 11x27" = 3 clicks, 11x27 to 11x36" = 4 clicks, and 11x36 to 11x47" = 5 clicks.

Toshiba - 11x17 = 2 clicks, 11x17.52 - 11x31.49 = 4 clicks, 11x31.3 - 11x47.24 = 6 clicks

Best regards,

Jake
