1.  In PSE you would have to use a combination of patterns and actions--- load pattern first, then apply the action you choose- typically light / med / heavy are choices.  I googled it and came across some "engraved" actions for photoshop--- generally the actions will mostly work in PSE- until it gets to a feature that PSE does not have- then the action will stop, or continue to the finish of the action- and produce poor results.

2.   Ink usage estimators are for commercial production- the results are often in Kg or pounds, or gallons.    For home use there are "rule of thumb" estimators.

Here is a basic link with basic printing costs, just to show you some basic info.

You really would have to search your type of printer / paper aid figure it out specific to your set up.
