Information technology — Office equipment — Method for the determination of ink cartridge yield for colour inkjet printers and multi-function devices that contain printer components (ISO/IEC 24711:2021)
The scope of this document is limited to the evaluation of ink cartridge page yield for ink-containingcartridges (i.e. integrated ink cartridges and ink cartridges without integrated printheads) for colourinkjet print systems. This document can also be applied to the printer component of any multifunctionaldevice that has a digital input printing path, including multi-function devices that contain inkjet printercomponents. Both liquid and solid ink products can be tested using this document.This document is only intended for the measurement of ink cartridge page yield when printing on plainpaper. No other claims can be made from this testing regarding quality, reliability, etc.This document can be used to measure the yield of any cartridge that is used in a significant amountduring the printing of the test page suite defined in ISO/ IEC 24712.This document is not for use with printers whose minimum printable size is equal to or greater than A3or for printers designed or configured to print photos (for example, maximum printable size less thanA4 or a printer configuration intended for photo-only printing). In addition, it only applies to drop-on-demand printing systems.NOTE Integrated ink cartridges is a cartridge that includes at least: an ink containment part, an inkdeposition mechanism and an ink transport part (see ISO/ IEC 29142-1).
