Checking Page Counts
The total number of printed pages can be checked at the operator panel. Four meters are available:
Meter 1, Meter 2, Meter 3, and Meter 4.
The Meter Readings counts the number of pages printed properly. Single side color print (including
N-up) is counted as one job, and 2-sided print (including N-up) is counted as two. During 2-sided
printing, if an error occurs after one side is printed properly, it is counted as one.
When printing color data, which has been converted by using ICC profile on an application, with the
Color (Auto) setting, the data is printed by color even if it seems to be black and white data on the
monitor. In that case, Meter 1 and Meter 4 are increased.
When doing 2-sided printing, a blank page may be inserted automatically depending on the settings of
the application. In this case, the blank page is counted as one page.
For information about the individual meter, see "Meter Readings" on page 145.
Use the following procedure to check a meter:
1 Press the Menu button.
2 Select Meter Readings, and then press the button.
3 Select the desired meter to check the number of pages.
