There's no way to even give a ballpark estimate based on past jobs you've ran that are similar to the specifics in his post?

What is the retail price of the ink by the cc? And, what is the cost of pre-treatment on the Brother - I heard that it was 50-75 cents per side, is that accurate?

Hard to "estimate" but did some names and numbers today in white on a black shirt. avg was 3.55cc. Which equates to about $2.13 in ink. The ink is crazy expensive....... And you have to add in about .40 or so of pretreat.

I'd say between $1.80 and about $5.00 is a good rough estimate.
