Ink Coverage Calculator







Formula

To calculate the Ink Coverage (IC):

\[ IC = W \times H \times \left( \frac{CP}{100} \right) \]

What is Ink Coverage?

Ink coverage is the area of a sheet that will be covered by ink when printing. It is usually expressed as a percentage of the total sheet area. Knowing the ink coverage is important for estimating the amount of ink required for a print job, which can help in cost calculation and ensuring the quality of the print.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Use the IC calculation formula:

\[ IC = 8.5 \times 11 \times \left( \frac{50}{100} \right) = 93.5 \text{ square inches} \]

The Ink Coverage is 93.5 square inches.
