A:
The print industry uses a print coverage average of 5% per page to advertise the "UP To" number - reality is most document coverage is typically 25% and if your doing spread sheets over 50% - there are online tools that can give you a real number based on your typical print coverage - I divide that "Up to" number by a minimum of 3 to get a realistic number, which is ~15% print coverage, sound like that is a realistic percentage based on your 2000 copies, you can increase your copies by turning your print quality to draft mode if necessary. To really know what your coverage is, do a search using "HP Print Cost Calculator" ( BTW there are free third party calculators, just leave HP off the search)
