My daughter is doing a 4H project which requires us to include the cost to create the project. How do I figure the cost to print at home? I can easily figure the cost of the photo paper per page, but how do you figure the ink into it? I have a Canon Pixma iP4500 which takes 5 separate ink tanks.

Any help would be appreciated...the write ups are due by Tuesday.

Thanks! Amy

Thank you, Amy for letting us know that there IS a way to figure the cost of printing layouts at home. I have often wondered just how much it was costing me but had no idea how to figure it - I just knew that I was spending an awful lot of $$$$$ buying ink - good to know - thank you!
