Overview
This topic describes how to quote a Special Copy Product.
Print Quote Window
Step by Step
| 1. |  From the Main Menu, click the Quote button. |
| 2. | Click the F2 button. |
| 3. | Click Copies in the black panel on the right, then double-click Copies, C1/1, RIP, 8-1/2 x 11. |
This step is mandatory if the Print Quote window shows a product in one category (Offset, Digital, or Copy) and you want to define a Special Product in another. You can't jump categories. For example, if the Print Quote window shows an Offset product and you press Ctrl-F2 (the next step below), you can select from and then modify any Offset product, but it has to be Offset. It can't be a Copy product or Digital.
| 4. | Click the button to the right of the F2 button, or hold down the Ctrl-Key and press F2. |
| 5. | Enter "Progress Report" in the Name field. |

| 6. | Click the small button in the black panel (pointed to by the arrow) to change the run configuration from 1/1 to 1/0, from black on the front and black on the back, to black on one side only. |
| 7. | Click the Properties button. |
Properties Window
Prices entered in the Properties window are baseline prices, prices you would charge for an 8-1/2 x 11 or A4 copy, one side, with 30% coverage. For the quote, Morning Flight will recalculate these prices to account for size, coverage, and run configuration (one side only versus front and back).
| 8. | Make sure RIP is checked, then enter "15" for RIP. Check Originals and enter "12". When a quote includes multiple originals, the quantity you would quote on is the total quantity, not the quantity per original. In the example above, the 600 run represents 50 copies each of 12 originals. That's true throughout Morning Flight, regardless of whether you're quoting Offset, Digital, or Copies. The quantity you're quoting on is always the number of finished sheets, envelopes, or carbonless sets. Take pads, for instance. A quote for 1,000 Note Sheets finished into 50-sheet pads would give the customer 20 pads. |
| 9. | Click the Packaging button and select Letterbox. Click Ok. |

Zooming in
In the Print Quote window, click the white Product panel to open a Product Zoom window. The red indent on the Ctrl-F2 button tells us this is a Special Product. The C in C1/0 says they're Copies.
In the Zoom window for Copies, you have a zoom within a zoom. The primary window shows the final price per copy, including RIP charges and other extras (but excluding paper). When you swipe the cursor over the gray panel, the display changes to baseline prices for that product, prices you would charge for an 8-1/2 x 11 or A4 copy, one side, with 30% coverage. Baseline prices are entered either in My Store for a standard Copy product, or above, in the Properties window, for special copies.
