How this is calculated: gross margin only — your price per sq ft less your material cost, times your monthly volume. It does not include ink, labour, electricity, maintenance or waste, so your real return will be lower. Payback assumes an outright purchase. The monthly payment shown is an illustrative estimate and a starting figure — your actual payment may be higher. It is subject to credit approval and is not an offer of credit. Figures are an estimate for planning, not a guarantee of earnings.
