When viewing the print release queue, the user’s quota for black-and-white and color jobs are shown. You may see one or two icons with numbers next to them:
The number next to the 
icon indicates the total number of pages (black-and-white and color) that you can print or copy, as specified by the administrator. This number is your total quota.
The number next to the 
icon indicates the number of color pages that you can print or copy, as specified by the administrator. This number is your color quota.
The color quota is a subset of the total quota. When you print or copy a color job, both your color quota and your total quota decrease. When you print or copy a black-and-white job, only your total quota decreases until it becomes lower than your color quota. When your total quota becomes lower than your color quota, your color quota automatically decreases to match your total quota.
When you select jobs to print or copy from your print release queue, note the page count for each job. If the total page count for all the jobs you selected exceeds your quota, then you cannot print or copy. When you attempt to print or copy, a message appears on the printer screen, stating that you do not have enough quota to complete the request.
