22 Using the Status Monitor
E. USING THE COST ESTIMATOR
The cost estimator is found on the fourth tab of the Status
Monitor. The Status Monitor automatically opens as soon as
you begin printing. However, you can also access it at any time
as long as the printer is turned on and communicating by going
to Start - Programs - Primera Technology - LX500 Status
Monitor.
Ink cost is automatically and continuously calculated based
on the black and color cartridge costs entered. Only the last
printed label cost is displayed.
• Adjust the cartridge costs according to the actual price paid
for them. The estimate does not take currency into account
so you can assume that whatever value you entered is
displayed in your currency.
• Save a screen capture of the cost by clicking the disk icon.
• Print a screen capture of the cost by clicking the printer
icon.
Important Note: The cost per label represents the average cost per label over
an entire run of labels. This means that the per label cost will
decrease and become more accurate as the number of labels printed
increases. This is because ink used for cartridge maintenance is
divided into a larger number of labels.
