We have a customer who uses our microfilm reader/printer to print
articles from the NY Times and local newspaper.
He prints hundreds of copies and has caused our cost for purchasing
toner cartridges to triple. We currently charge .10 per copy.  What are
other libraries charging?   We are considering increasing the cost of
making copies to offset the cost of the toner ($165. per cartridge).

   We charge the same .20/page regardless of the number of pages they
copy. Paper,toner and electricity go into our equation for cost and
those
things don't change based on number of copies. I think it's the "mega
mentality"(More is cheaper)
   We aren't Sam's Club or Costco where more is supposed to be cheaper.
