How the sticker count is calculated

Quick Count subtracts each safety margin from the sheet, adds bleed to both sides of every sticker, and tests normal and 90-degree orientations. It then applies this grid formula: 

columns = floor((usable width + gap) / (occupied width + gap))
rows = floor((usable height + gap) / (occupied height + gap))
count = columns × rows

Circles use their bounding square. The calculator does not use hexagonal circle packing.

What the mixed layout means

Mixed layouts are planning estimates produced by a deterministic rectangle-packing heuristic. The tool tests multiple stable sort orders, but it does not claim a mathematically global optimum.

The largest SKU gap becomes the shared spacing rule for the mixed layout. This is conservative when a recipe contains different gaps.

Costs, fees, and break-even price

Material cost includes planned sheets after spoilage and extra sheets. Labor combines setup time, per-sheet time, per-order time, and the hourly rate. Platform fee percentages remain editable because fee schedules and account terms can change.

Transaction fees use item revenue plus charged shipping. Processing fees also include the buyer tax estimate. Always verify the current fee policy for your marketplace and country.

Important production limits

  • Planning layout only. This is not a production-ready cut file.
  • No images, contour extraction, or registration marks are exported.
  • Machine software controls the final printable and cuttable area.
  • Print on ordinary paper at 100% and measure before using material.
  • Profit results are estimates, not a guarantee of sales or earnings.
