About Price Lists 

Assignable price lists enable an administrator to define various prices for print, copy or scan operations. In order to ensure proper accounting of print operations, devices must have assigned at minimum at the Default Price List. A price list can be shared by multiple users, cost centers or devices. Therefore, in a homogeneous environment where all devices run at the same cost, only one price list must be configured and can be applied to all devices, users or cost centers quickly.

Displaying Price Lists

In the Dispatcher Paragon management interface, click Billing and then the Price list tab.

On this page, there is a list of the existing price lists defined in the system.

To add a new price list, click the NEW PRICE LIST button.

There are some rules and dependencies connected to the price lists:

  • Devices must always have a price list assigned.
  • When both device and cost center of user have different price lists assigned, the one assigned to cost center of user is used.
  • When both cost center of user and user have different price lists assigned, the one assigned to user is used.
  • When both device and user have different price lists assigned, the one assigned to user is used.
