    [Misc] Canon iPF6200 imagePROGRAF printer

    I am trying to find a job counter on this printer. I've searched the manual, and the printer. Either I've missed it or they have forgotten it. Is there a counter somewhere on this printer? I'm trying to figure out a price per print cost, and really need this info. Anyone have any ideas?

    This printer counts the print length, number of ink tank replacements, number of cleaning operations, number of cutter operations, and so on and stores them in the main controller's EEPROM as a service mode counter.
    This counter provides important information about the printer usage status.
    You can check this information by printing it in the service mode or displaying it on the display.
    Experience is the best adviser!

              think this is it

              1. Turn off the printer
              2. Turn on the printer while holding down either the Paper Source or Feeder Selection button and Online button.
              3. Check that "Canon " is shown on the display, and then release the buttons.
              4. Next, "SERVICE MODE" is shown on the display. (If sheets are inserted, this will be displayed after the sheets are loaded.)
              5. Use the [v] button to make a selection.

              To exit the service mode, turn off the printer.

              In the service mode> Display> Print INF > select Yes , that will give you a complete print out of the information that you need.
