PRINT PRODUCTIVITY
Evaluating print productivity is not as simple as timing copy
jobs. The printing process involves several steps and can
be affected by a variety of factors along the way.
The document must first be spooled by the print driver into
a PCL or PostScript file. The PCL or PostScript file is then
sent to the printer where it is raster image processed
(RIPped) into image data by the device processor. The
image data is then sent to the marking engine and output
as printed pages.
It is possible to time and compare these factors through the
use of careful preparation, conditioning and testing.
Following are charts that show printing performance when
tested under controlled conditions.
