RISO ComColor 7050R ink usage

[TalmadgeAllen]

Hey guys, first time poster.

I was wondering if any of you were able to give me a rough estimate on how many pages you can get from one box of black ink. We're talking black only, mostly text, maybe a few icon sized images. Any input you guys could provide would be most helpful. Thanks.

I have 4 - HC 5500R's and average 20,000 plus, printing heavy color and text combined.

We are running a ComColor - just over 1 million on it and have used 40 ink cartridges (18 of these were black) - just over 25,000/cartridge. Works out to just under $0.02 per print. This is a combination of everything we do - envelopes, NCR, ltr size and approx. 125,000 12x18 (this job was approx. 25% coverage).
