ISO IEC 24711:2021 pdf download – Information technology — Office equipment — Method for the determination of ink cartridge yield for colour inkjet printers and multi- function devices that contain printer components.
1 Scope The scope of this document is limited to the evaluation of ink cartridge page yield for ink-containing cartridges (i.e. integrated ink cartridges and ink cartridges without integrated printheads) for colour inkjet print systems. This document can also be applied to the printer component of any multifunctional device that has a digital input printing path, including multi-function devices that contain inkjet printer components. 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 plain paper. 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 amount during 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 A3 or for printers designed or configured to print photos (for example, maximum printable size less than A4 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 ink deposition mechanism and an ink transport part (see ISO/IEC 29142-1). 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.

3.1 fade phenomenon in which a significant reduction in uniformity occurs due to ink depletion Note 1 to entry: In this test, fade is defined by a significant increase in lightness, L*, or a decrease in density on the bands surrounding the edge of the last page in the test page suite ( 3.8) (diagnostic page). This decrease in density does not have to occur completely across the page. This comparison is made using the second diagnostic test page generated during testing (the 10th page printed). For examples of fade, please consult Figure A.1 .
