Basic materials price (P2): This price comprises the prices for the basic
materials of the ink and only appears as output field in the Basic materials
selection window. Input of prices for the basic materials is performed
in the basic materials database ( see Section 18.4 «Defining a new
basic material»). If the basic materials prices are not yet defined, a zero
is entered for Price 2.
Print ready inks price (P1): This price comprises the sum of basic materials
price and surcharge after determining the surcharge. If the print ready

fields are mutually coupled and are updated each time.
