# Printing Type
## Adding New Printing Type
You have so many products or templates or cliparts and it’s hard for you to find one of them. Categories will help you sort out them.
**Step 1**. Go to **Templates> Categories> Add new categories**
**Step 2**. Fill in its detail
**Step 3**. Go to Add/Edit a template
**Step 4** Find it on **Customer end**
## How to caculate printing price
Each printing method has its own way to calculate the price. The Lumise provide some options to enable that. **Allow setup price for each stage** In Design tab of a product base, you can create more stages for that product base. When Allow setup price for each stage is enabled, the printing price is applied for **all stages**, not only one stage.
1. **Calculate price with Text, Clipart, Images, Upload ( is uploaded image)**\
For example,
* **Stage 1:** I set the prices are
I suppose the original price of my product is **$200**, the quantity is 1 (in scope of 10)\
I use **3 Text** on Stage 1, It cost $1×3= $3 for printing\
I use **2 Clipart** on Stage 1, It costs $1×2=$2\
I use **1 Image** on Stage 1, It costs $1×1=$1\
–> Printing price are $6\
So the new price of my product is $100+$3+$2+$1= **$206**\
\&#xNAN;*Result:*
If the quantity is increased from **11** to **15**, the price is **different**\
Printing price is: **$4×3 + $4×2 + $4×1 = $24.**
**Stage 2:** I set the prices are
I use **3 Text** on Stage 2, It cost $2×3=$6 for printing\
I use **2 Clipart** on Stage 2, It costs $2×2=$4\
I use **1 Image** on Stage 2, It costs $2×1=$2\
So the new price of my product is **$212**\
\&#xNAN;*Result:*
The quantity range is the similar to stage 1

**2. Color Option is temporarily stopped working. We’re so sorry about this inconvenience.**\
\
**Hope you guys can try the other types.**
{% endhint %}
**3. Base on the size of print range : A1, A2,…A6**
I set the prices as:
Go to **Product Base** to config, you also have to select one of these sizes here
After add some objects to design, we can see the price of printing
**4. Fixed price for each quantity**\
The price is fixed for all stages and all design objects.
