Iwould also like to have blog posts without integrating an external CMS and that is another reason why I am asking if bubble could handle hundreds of pages. It is not the most important thing, but a nice to have for sure.
I'm considering the purchase of the MF656CDW color laser printer. It appears as though the 067 toner cartridges will print a lot of pages, but I read the printer is shipped with 'starter' toner cartridges. I'm a bit concerned that I'm going to have to soon spend another $300+ on new cartridges. Any idea how many pages are expected from the starter cartridges?
Hi, according to Canon's website the MF656Cdw ships with "Cartridge 067 CMY: Starter 680 Yield / Black, Standard: 1,350 Yield." I was a little unsure about whether to interpret this as both the black and color toners being starters or just the color toners being starters given the wording. But I also happen to have gotten one of these printers just a couple of days ago so I just checked the toners and only the CMY toners are labeled as starters.
Did not realize what a starter cartridge meant until I purchased the MF654CDW. I ran a report after the three-color cartridges ran out and it printed only198 copies and they were not full color copies, more like large thumbnail sizes for books. I have to say this was very disappointing, but the black cartridge is at 60 percent and just dropped over $300 to replace. Seriously deceptive since you drop over $400 to buy the unit.
Personally, I'm happy with the performance and quality of the prints and love the single pass duplex ADF. Everyone has a different monetary threshold. While OEM toner is expensive, I buy it in order to print. Laser printers go much farther than ink and the cost per page is around 50% less.

A couple of weeks ago, I had a chat with a marketing student from the University of Washington who wanted to advice about how to get into social media and digital PR. She asked me to take a look at her resume (CV or Curriculum Vitae in the UK) and my initial thought was, at just one page long, it might be a bit on the short side.
Two pages is OK for job-seekers with a bit more experience. Some responders had been in a number of roles over many years, so it made sense for them to beef out their resumes to paint a thicker picture about their professional background.

Honestly, there is no way to calculate how many pages your book will be until the publisher does all of their unique formatting and prints the book. Books are printed in all different sizes - some large, some small. Publishers also use different margin sizes- some like 1 inch all around, others like 1 inch on the sides and .5 in the headers. It varies from publisher to publisher. Some publishers also use different fonts.
Even Fox Cutter's estimate is 250 words per page isn't useful. If you have a lot of dialog, you may have pages with a lot less than 250 words on them. If you're a wordy writer, you may have pages with a lot more than that. Even the complexity of the words you use affects how many words are on a page. You 50,000 word manuscript may be half the page length of another authors 50,000 word manuscript.
You can see that this is a little less than 400 words per page in paperback. But don't forget that publishers employ different font sizes and leading depending on how long a book is in words. They'll pad out a short manuscript with large type and more leading, but lengthy manuscripts will correspondingly be compressed. I presume what I have here is an average of some kind.
Pages by paperback uses an industry standard formula (for English language publishing) of taking the average number of words per page and multiplying it by the average number of characters per word (five including a space, for six total), the product of which is then used to divide against the total character count of the project. By example, a book with 720,000 characters with an estimate set to 250 words per page will produce a result of 720000 / 2506 = 480.
That's really hard to say, books are usually measured by word count and not page count. That being said you can usually assume about 250 words per a printed page. This means that a 75,000 word novel would be around 300 pages.
Even so, that's not a very good calculation. Different books and publishers have different layouts for their pages. For example, a YA novel might use a larger font size to increase readability leaving only 200 words on the page. On the other hand, a modern fantasy novel might have a much smaller font and tighter margins then you expect to cram 400 words on a page.
At one point in time My roommate collected the Shadownrun tie in novels. All the books are about the same page count, but the layout varies depending on the length of the story. In fact one of the books has a tremendous amount of padding all over the page to expand a much shorter story to the correct page count.
So, the long and short of it is that your layout and printed page count probably have very little to do with each other. I would recommend the word count trick from above to get a fairly close idea, but even that can be wildly inaccurate.
Here is CreateSpace's Word template page. You can download them and then copy and paste your text onto it. This will give you properly formatted Word documents which can be converted to PDF, rendering the correct page count. You might find something similar at Lulu or other POD services.
That's going to give you the page count you're looking for. But, any other web site or service - and some can be tried for free - will be able to translate your manuscript from Word to PDF. The problem is generally getting the line spacing and trim size (the dimensions of the book) right. To do that, you have to know the trim size, the interior margins, the gutter (or space between pages for binding), etc. It's easier, IMO, just to use a pre-designed template.
In general the main thing that heats up in a laser printer is called the fuser. The fuser usually accounts for the majority of a laser printer's power usage. The heat of the fuser, under substandard conditions, can definitely cause damage to interior parts, however newer printers will usually have a good ventilation system to aid in heat dissipation. Another feature of newer printers is a power saving feature which will turn off the fuser and let it cool down. The printer only starts up again after proper working temperature is reached. You'll know if you have this feature or not If you've ever printed 100 pages or so. The stops are very noticeable but at least you know it's for safety reasons.
Something else: I would be leery of printing that many pages in one batch unless you have just installed a high yield toner cartridge. What happens when the toner runs out in the middle of the job? Can you reprint only the bad pages?
So, I think you should be fine. It will get heated up, but that is normal for a laser printer. That is what fuses the toner to the paper. It should heat up to its normal operating temperature and stay there. It is kind of like miles on a car, it is wear and tear, but it doesn't matter that much if you put them all on it in a year or 10 years.
You should take this amount of printing to a commercial printers - it would be cheaper and their equipment is designed to take the hit.You will probably get away with it on a SOHO laser printer but it's not the best tool for the job.
The monthly duty cycle limit is 30,000 pages, with a recommended monthly duty cycle of 500 to 3500 pages. The sort of print job you're running can be very stressful on the printer; I'd suggest that you allow the printer to cool down for 10-15 minutes every 500 or so pages.
I find surfing editorial forums interesting in so far as doing so reveals how colleagues think. Both questions and answers are revealing. Editorial colleagues want to be helpful to one another. Consequently, no matter the question, someone, if not many someones, will respond. I think that sense of community is heartening and helps make editing a great profession to be in. That surface impression of community helpfulness, however, begins to slip as the answers pile up.
Another vital element that needs to be known is: What makes a page? Is it number of words, characters without spaces, characters with spaces, formatted pages, something else? And once the measure is chosen, how much of the measure makes a page? For example, is it 250 words, 300 words, or 350 words that make a page? Suppose there are a large number of words like supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Do words like that count as one word? Two words? Three words? If you count characters, how many characters make a page?
Okay, you tell me you know the answers to all of the previous questions and therefore are in a position to assign value to my being able to edit 12 pages an hour. But did you consider this? Do you know how many errors I create or miss as I edit that at the 12-page speed? This is important information. If I introduce an average of three errors per page or miss three errors per page, perhaps I need to slow my speed down because I am making/missing too many errors. Perhaps editing at 12 pages an hour is inappropriate for the material. On the other hand, if I am not introducing any errors and I am missing, on average, one error for every 5 pages, perhaps I am editing an appropriate speed or maybe can even edit a little bit faster.
