Brilliant productivity, best-in-class CPP and TCO Cost per page (CPP) is the amount of money that it takes to print a single page. This is determined by dividing the cost of the ink by the page yield. The total cost of ownership (TCO) is a calculation of what a printer would cost you based on the initial purchase cost of hardware plus the costs of ink over a fixed period.
Low running costs, brilliant productivity With a full set of ink bottles producing up to 14,000 prints, this high-performance, high-volume MegaTank printer delivers huge savings on the total cost of ownership and cost per page. That’s a smart investment for any home office.
