4. Click the Quote Tool Tab (fourth tab down with the coin icon). Your Total cost per label includ-
ing stock will be displayed based on default toner cartridge and stock costs. Adjust these values
to reflect the actual cost of your toner and label stock.
Once you set the stock and toner cost values you will not have to change them again unless you
make another buy of stock or toner at a different cost.
Important Note: This tool provides a Cost ESTIMATE. Actual costs may vary.
Labels Per Page
Always verify the Labels per Page is accurate. Adjust if necessary. If you manually array images on
a page in PTPrint using the instructions in Section 5.2, the Labels Per Page will have to be manually
entered.

6.2 Printing a Proof Print
Immediately before you print any job you can print 1 page of that job ( Proof Print ). If you print a
proof print you can:
• estimate cost per label
• enable analysis of available toner in cartridges vs. required toner to finish the job
Even if you have previously printed a one page proof print to estimate label cost you must always
print a one page job immediate before your job to check if there will be enough toner for your job.
See the flow chart below for a typical work flow.
