How to Set Printing Price per Color?

Use Price Per Color when your price depends on how many ink colors are in the design, and how many pieces the customer orders.

First type Maximum colors per print location. Custy builds a simple table. Then add quantity ranges (From and to) and type a price in each box.

Step 1: Open Price Per Color

Click Products, then Printing Types & Pricing. Add or edit a printing type. Click Price Per Color.

  • Open Add Printing Type or Edit Printing Type.
  • Click Price Per Color.

  1. 1

    Price Per Color

    This tab is for prices by color count and quantity.

  2. 2

    Maximum colors per print location

    How many ink colors are allowed on one print area. The table grows from this number.

  3. 3

    From / to

    How many pieces this column of prices covers.

  4. 4

    Add New Range

    Adds another quantity range.

  5. 5

    Different price for other printing sides

    Turn on if the back (or another side) needs its own prices.

Step 2: Set the maximum colors

Type a number in Maximum colors per print location. Custy builds one row for 1 color, one row for 2 colors, and so on. Shoppers cannot use more colors than this on one print area.

  • Type a number bigger than 0 (for example 4 or 6).
  • Check that the table shows one row for each color count.

Empty table

If the maximum is 0, the table stays empty. Raise the number so rows appear.

Step 3: Add quantity ranges and prices

Each column is a quantity range (From and to). Each row is a color count. Type the price for that mix in the box.

  • Click Add New Range to add another quantity column.
  • Type From and to for each range.
  • Type the price for each color count in that range.
  • Use the trash button to remove a range if you have more than one and do not need it.

Step 4: Different price for other sides (optional)

Turn on Different price for other printing sides if the second print area (for example the back) should cost something else. Custy copies your first table into Second Location Price Table so you can change it. Use Add New Range on that table if you need more quantity steps.

  • Turn Different price for other printing sides on.
  • Edit Second Location Price Table if you need different numbers.

Step 5: Save or Update

Click Save or Update at the bottom of the window.

  • Click Save or Update.

What to do next

If you also price by how big the design is, open Price Per Size Range. Then pick this printing type on Customize Product.
