10、11-09 3Introduction This International 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
11、pages. The procedure for using these pages is detailed in ISO/IEC 19798 and ISO/IEC 24711. Method for the determination of ink cartridge yield for colour inkjet printers and multi-function devices that contain printer components DIN ISO/IEC 24712:2011-09 41 Scope The scope of this International Stan
12、dard 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 mult
13、i-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 usin
14、g 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 doc

17、ms and definitions apply. 3.1 test page suite collection of the five documents defined in this International Standard NOTE There are four customer type documents and a diagnostic page to assess ink/toner out. They are meant to be printed as a single five page job. DIN ISO/IEC 24712:2011-09 54 Conver
18、sion from PostScript to PDF The base files for the test pages are created in hand coded PostScript (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. The screen shots below show the configuration that is use
19、d to generate the final PDFs using Adobe Acrobat Standard version 7.0. N1)National footnote: Adobe PDF Readeris the trade name of a suitable, commercially available software product.

N1)DIN ISO/IEC 24712:2011-09 6DIN ISO/IEC 24712:2011-09 75 Conversion from CMYK to RGB All of the colours within the hand coded PS files are defined using setcmyk and a set of CMYK values to simplify colour balancing during test suite development. Most office work flows are RG
21、B 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 conversion from CMYK to RGB can result in black elements bein
22、g 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=G=B=1.0 - K K is the only colour used, set RGB all to an equa
23、l 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, Y + K) This represents the majority of colour conversions. NO
24、TE 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 will be used for yield testing. The fonts used in the document
25、s 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. If font substitution does occur, the LSA logo will not be prope
26、rly 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 edge and 250mm for the long edge. A measurement must be made for
27、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. DIN ISO/IEC 24712:2011-09 8For the testing to be valid, the fi
28、les shall be printed as a complete 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 te
29、st. The test must be conducted using 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
30、 test suite is an example of a business 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 betwe
31、en these marks shall be 250 mm 1%. In the short direction the distance between marks shall be 170 mm 1%.
