ISO/IEC 19752:2004 Information technology -- Method for the
determination of toner cartridge yield for monochromatic
electrophotographic printers and multi-function devices that
contain printer components http://www.iso.org
The page yield enables us to perform accurate comparisons across our products as
well as any competitor products. Our research shows that the most likely competition
for our printer is a laser printer. By rating in pages, we make it easier for users to
compare and see our substantial cost advantage. Additionally, the page test protocol
is a much better indicator of real life consumable yields compared with older
character based ratings. The difficulty with character yield comparisons is that
manufacturers use different tests, settings, applications and environments to produce
a character yield. There are no published comparisons of how one manufacturer
derived a character yield versus other manufacturers.
Cost Per Page Comparison and Page Yield Per Cartridge
