Abstract
The quality cost in total quality management is one of the most important aspects of the development of a quality management system. In this article a model of a quality management system has been developed incorporating the quality cost of the organization. Finally to evaluate the quality management system of some printing industries a new indirect method of measuring total quality cost has been introduced to estimate the total cost.
