National bodies tha
11、t are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other interna
12、tional organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in
13、 the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at
14、 least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC 11160-2 was prepared by Joint Technical Co
15、mmittee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 28, Office equipment. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition which has been technically revised.

19、eets their requirements. ISO/IEC 11160 specifies the minimum information to be included in the specification sheets of printers in order for users to compare the characteristics of different machines. The term “Specification Sheets” applies to documents which describe the performance characteristics
20、 of the printers to be included in instruction manuals, product brochures or on websites. ISO/IEC 11160 applies to printers that could be operated in an office environment. Printers requiring specially equipped rooms or specially instructed operators are not considered in ISO/IEC 11160. ISO/IEC 1116
21、0 deals with different classes of printers This part of ISO/IEC 11160 accommodates Class 3 and Class 4 printers, as defined in Annex C. Detailed descriptions of Class 3 and Class 4 printers are specified in Annex A. Serial printers are classified as Class 1 or Class 2 printers as defined in Annex C
22、and covered by Part-1 of ISO/IEC 11160. 2 Conformance In order to comply with this part of ISO/IEC 11160, specification sheets shall include, in the order shown, all required items listed in clause 5 which are relevant to the machine being described. 3 Normative references The following documents, i
23、n whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

28、ut voltage d) Line Frequency: rated frequency e) Paper size: A4 f) Paper weight: 60 g/m 2 to 90 g/m 2g) Paper transport direction: standard direction For the test pattern, the document in Annex B (Informative) should be used. Annex B is derived from ISO/IEC 10561, where the guide line (character art
29、, size etc) is given for the creation of the test target. So long as the document is text only, a bit of modification causes no influence over the results of measurement. For monochrome test pattern, all letters should be black. For colour test pattern, arbitrary letters should be colourized by usin
30、g the primary colorants of the printer. Instead of A4 paper size, the size most commonly used in the country may be used, both for the test page and the copies. This shall be indicated in the specification sheet. 5 Information to be included in the specification sheets Table 1 defines, for each para
31、meter, the name of the parameter and a short description of the entry. These constitute the information to be included in the specification sheet. Parameters whose properties shall be included in the specification sheets are marked as “R“ (required), while other parameters whose properties are recom
32、mended to be included are marked as “O“ (optional). The heading of the specification sheet shall indicate that it has been prepared in accordance with this part of ISO/IEC 11160. For every parameter, if any special instruction is not given, the name of the parameter of Table 1 shall be used without
33、change. Non-applicable parameters may be ignored, without changing the order of remaining parameters. Additional parameters may be adjacently inserted to the related parameter in Table 1 for the purpose of describing the function which is not covered by other parameters. For a parameter with volumin
34、ous description, it may be stated separately and may use a figure or a table. In such case, the caption of the figure or the table shall be identical with the name of parameter shown in Table 1. The “Remarks and examples“ column is provided for the persons who prepare the information sheet, and it i
35、s not intended to appear in the specification sheet. The column includes informative examples and normative test methods and descriptions. Test methods to be applied, when not defined in other International Standards, are defined in this column. Whenever a capacity is given in sheets, the reference
36、paper weight (g/m 2 ) shall be specified Numbers attached to parameters are not normative but only for convenience.

39、the order of horizontal and vertical. The design capability of the machine to place the dots. Note that the theoretical writing resolution and the actual printing resolution may be different. If the dot density can be stepped up and down, all grades should be indicated. If technologies which can imp
40、rove apparent resolution (line smoothing technology, bit depth control for each dot, etc.) are applied, resultant resolution, its method or trade name of such technology should be additionally indicated. 1.6 Tone O Indicate the available number of tone or colours in design theory. 2. Performance dat
41、a 2.1 Warm-up time R Indicate both 1) and 2). 1) Send the print signal (i.e. click on PC), just after power-on. Measure time in minutes and/or seconds from the power- on to the completion of the first paper ejection. Warm-up time is described as the difference of the measured time and First print ou
42、t time (2.2). 2) Send the print signal (i.e. click on PC) from power save mode. Measure time in minutes and/or seconds from the print start to the completion of the first paper ejection. Warm-up time is described as the difference of the measured time and First print out time (2.2). If the value mea
43、sured by 2) is equal to or longer than the value of 1), indicate both values of 1) and 2). If the value of 1) is longer than the value 2), the value 2) is omissible. The results measured at 23 C should be indicated. Round off the results to integer number. In the case of less than 10 seconds round o
44、ff the results to one decimal places and report two significant digits (e. g. from 5,35 to 5,4 seconds). Or after rounding up the results, it may report as “less than or equal to the figure“ or “ less than the figure“. If there is more than one power saver mode, indicate the results for each mode, o
45、r indicate the longest result.
