12、 International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particu
13、lar fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international 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 establi
14、shed a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in 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 technica
15、l committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at 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 and I

18、 Standard provides a set of test pages in a common file format that are used in the testing of cartridge yield for colour toner and colour ink. The focus of this test suite is not for printing of photographs, but is intended to be a sampling of typical consumer pages. The procedure for using these p
19、ages is detailed in ISO/IEC 19798 and ISO/IEC 24711.

21、ard is to define colour test pages for the measurement of consumable yield. The test page suite includes four “customer” type documents and one “diagnostic” page that is used to determine end of ink or toner consumable life. These pages can be used for electro-photographic, inkjet printers and multi
22、-function devices that have a digital printing path, i.e. an all-in-one electro-photographic machine that has digital printing capabilities. This International Standard provides a set of test pages in a common file format that would be used in the testing of consumable yield. The procedure for using
23、 these pages is detailed in ISO/IEC 19798 and ISO/IEC 24711. These pages are intended to represent some of the types of documents that are used in the office and home. They are not intended to represent special applications such as photo printing. 2 Normative references The following referenced docu
24、ments are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO/IEC 19798, Method for the determination of toner cartridge yield for colou

They are meant to be printed as a single five page job. Copyright American National Standard

28、ipt (PS). All five pages are included in a single PS file. This file is then converted to PDF version 1.3 and the fonts are embedded using Acrobat.

31、g during test suite development. Most office work flows are RGB and the final PDF files are intended to represent average office enviroments. To make sure that a well defined conversion from CMYK to RGB occurs, the conversion from CMYK to RGB is defined within the PS file. In some cases the internal
32、 conversion from CMYK to RGB can result in black elements being printed in a composite black instead of black colourant only. For this reason a defined method was established to convert from CMYK to RGB and preserve black only elements. There are three cases that are considered: Case 1: C=Y=M=0; K R
33、=G=B=1.0 - K K is the only colour used, set RGB all to an equal value. Case 2: C=Y=M R=G=B=1.0 - C C, M and Y are equal (composite black) set RGB all to an equal value. Case 3: C, Y, M & K are all non-zero and not equal - In this case: R = 1.0 min(1.0, C + K) G = 1.0 min(1.0, M + K) B = 1.0 min(1.0,
34、 Y + K) This represents the majority of colour conversions. NOTE These colour conversions are simplified for the purpose of clarity in the context of ISO/IEC 24712. These test pages are NOT recommended for use in colour quality evaluations. 6 Page Descriptions Only the PDF versions of the documents
35、will be used for yield testing. The fonts used in the documents have been uniquely named to try to prevent font substitution from occurring. The font names included in the definitions below are abbreviations of the font names used in the PDF file. This was done to simplify the printed definitions. I
36、f font substitution does occur, the LSA logo will not be properly reproduced. The page size for all of the pages is 209 mm x 279 mm. This allows the documents to be printed on either letter or A4 paper. The distance between the “L“ shaped marks in the corner of each page are 170 mm for the short edg
37、e and 250mm for the long edge. A measurement must be made for short edge feeding paper and the distance shall be 170.0mm 1%. For long edge feeding paper this measurement shall be 250.0mm 1%. This is done because image stretch can occur in the feeding direction that does not affect the use of toner.

39、te five page suite as a single job. The suite is designed to use approximately equal amounts of C, M, Y and K colourants. In practice, each printer will use unequal amounts after the documents are processed through the unique colour conversions of the printer under test. The test must be conducted u
40、sing the most recent official electronic test file as the input. The most recent official file can be located at http:/www.iso.org/jtc1/sc28*. Failure to use the correct file will invalidate the test results. * To be published 6.1 Business Letter The first page in the test suite is an example of a b
41、usiness letter. There are multiple fonts and type sizes used in the document. A colour logo graphic is presented along with a coloured bar chart. In each corner of the page are “L“ shaped marks for measurement of the page size. In the long direction the distance between these marks shall be 250 mm 1
42、%. In the short direction the distance between marks shall be 170 mm 1%.
