[Genealib] Copying question

[Dottie Demarest]

We charge $.25 per copy for the microfilm printer due to our increased
costs.

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.
