Engine Cycle Count = 2480, which is more or less considered an odometer for the device,
includes any blank sheets that pass through the printer.
FutureSmart device
Newer FutureSmart devices provide accurate billing of color vs. mono while preserving the ability to
track simplex vs. duplex sheets and blank impressions. In the above example for the HP Color
LaserJet CM4540, the following holds true:
Total Sheets = Total Simplex Sheets + Total Duplex Sheets
118 = 111 + 7
118 = 118
Total Impressions = Total Mono Impressions + Total Color Impressions
118 = 10 + 8
118 = 118
Total Simplex Sheets + 2*Total Duplex Sheets = Total Impressions + Total Blank Impressions
111 + 2*7 = 118 + 7
125 = 125
Engine Cycle Count can be a little unpredictable, but in many cases it will match the calculations
above for Total Impressions + Total Blank Impressions or Total Simplex Sheets +
2*Total Duplex Sheets. In this case it holds true as Engine Cycle Count = 125.
While these calculations are exactly the same as those for the non-FutureSmart devices with Duplex
Impressions disabled, the real difference lies in the accuracy of the counts for color vs. mono vs.
blank. Devices with impression counting enabled, such as FutureSmart devices, more accurately
account for the type of toner (or lack thereof) placed on a page.
SUPPLIES COLUMN CATEGORY
The new Supplies column in HP Web Jetadmin 10.2 Service Release 5 encompasses all aspects of
