Requesting a Print Medium Test

Requesting a Print Medium Test

Importance of Print Medium Testing

InfoColor 70/3170 Print Medium testing is needed to adjust and optimize a set of control parameters
to obtain the best print quality.

Using a tested and supported print medium offers you the following advantages:

•

Stable print quality

•

Minimum quantity of wasted paper

•

Minimum printing problems, such as paper jams

•

Minimum contamination of the InfoColor 70/3170 print engine; thereby reducing machine interven-
tion and frequency of service.

Procedures

1. Before considering a print medium test, request the latest IBM InfoColor 70 Print Media List from

your account representative. Make sure that there is not a similar stock on this list before you ini-
tiate a request for a test.

2. Make sure there is full support from the Medium Manufacturer.

3. Contact IBM certified Medium Test Agencies

For US region contact RIT (Lisa Ford, Tel: 716-475-5593, Fax: 716-475-5250, Email: LM-
[email protected]).

For EMEA regions, contact Pira (Mike Chamberlain, Tel: 44-1372-802000, Fax: 44-1372-802238/
46, E-mail: [email protected] or [email protected])

4. The test will cost the medium manufacturer or the customer about $240/hour. It usually takes

about 2.5 - 3 hours for one medium test. The turn around time is about 2 to 6 months depending
on the agencies current work load. A paper may also be tested on an emergency basis with a
shorter turn around time for a cost premium.

5. Paper Test Agencies will request the following information from the medium manufacturer through

two different forms as a pre-requisite for testing. The following is a sample of these forms:
