What is Print & Photocopy Cost Calculator?
Print & Photocopy Cost Calculator prices a print shop's jobs exactly. Enter your rates once — the price per printed side for A4, A3, Letter and Legal in black-and-white and colour — and, if you want to see profit, the cost of a sheet of paper and of toner or ink per side. Then add the job: pages, copies, paper, colour and single- or double-sided, plus lamination, binding and other items. Discounts and service charges can be an amount or a percentage. The total, your cost, profit and margin update as you type, and you can download or print a bill on A4, A5 or an 80/58 mm thermal roll. Amounts use ISO 4217 minor units (JPY 0 decimals, BDT/USD 2, KWD/BHD 3) with half-up rounding once.

Troubleshooting
- A field is marked as not a number Use digits with an optional decimal point (Bangla digits are fine); leave out currency signs and spaces.
- The profit looks too high Enter your paper cost per sheet and toner/ink cost per side, and any other material cost — profit is the total minus these costs.

FAQ
How are double-sided pages counted?
Each printed side is charged at the side rate; a double-sided sheet holds two sides, so 9 double-sided pages use 5 sheets and 9 sides.
Are the totals exact?
Yes. Amounts use ISO minor units for the selected currency (e.g. paisa for BDT, yen for JPY, fils for KWD) as integers — never floating-point totals. Percentages are rounded half-up once per line.
Can I use my own currency?
Yes — searchable ISO 4217 currencies; decimals follow each currency’s minor units. Changing currency does not convert past amounts or fetch exchange rates.
Can I save my shop's rates?
Yes — tick “Remember rates on this device”. They are kept only in this browser (no account, no upload) and “Forget saved details” removes them.
