We charge 25 cents per page for all copies.  However I think it is justifiable to charge more for microfilm prints because of the toner use.

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.
