Stationery Order and Stock Sheet
Keep the cupboard stocked before it runs dry, and stop two people ordering the same box of toner in the same week.
IT and office systems · IY-14
A free printable printer usage log sheet — meter readings from the machine and every toner, drum and fuser fitted, with part numbers, for one printer or copier.
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.
Print it and write on it
Fill it in type and save
The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
Know what a printer really costs per page, which consumable keeps running out, and the exact part number to reorder without opening the machine.
Office managers, IT support and anyone on a copier contract that bills by the meter reading.
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One printer or copier's meter readings and every cartridge, drum and fuser fitted to it — so the cost per page and the toner that keeps running out are both on record.
Meter from the machine, part number from the box. Take the meter reading from the machine's own counter or status page each time, and write the consumable's part number from the box, not the machine's model number — the two are different and a wrong reorder is the usual result.

Because consumables are not interchangeable between models and meter readings only mean something against one machine. One sheet per printer is also what a copier contract asks for when it wants readings.
Keep the cupboard stocked before it runs dry, and stop two people ordering the same box of toner in the same week.
Record what the business owns rather than what is in the shed: a numbered list with cost and disposal, which is what an insurer or an accountant asks for.
Turn the cupboard full of blinking boxes into a list that says what each one is for and what stops working if it is switched off.
Turn reordering from a guess into a decision, by recording the level you have chosen to hold against what is actually on the shelf.
