ISO IEC 11160-2-2021 pdf Office equipment — Minimum information to be included in specification sheets — Part 2: Class 3 and Class 4 printers

For a monochrome test pattern, all letters should be black. For a colour test pattern, arbitrary letters should be colourized by using the primary colorants of the printer. Besides 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 parameter, 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 recommended 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 document, i.e. ISO/IEC 11160-2. For every parameter, if a special instruction is not given, the name of the parameter of Table 1 shall be used without 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 voluminous 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 to 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 is 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 paper grammage (g/m ) shall be specified. Numbers attached to parameters are not normative but only for convenience. The example of the specification sheets is shown in Annex D .
