This document describes a laboratory test method, using an IGT1-type or a prüfbau2-type printability tester, for the preparation of specimens to evaluate the absorption rate of an ink on a substrate in offset lithography by setting-off the printed surface to an unprinted surface. This method describes testing with an amount of ink simulating either single colour or multi-colour printing. The print and the set-off print (counter print) are made with interval times, between print and set-off, common for the target process. This method evaluates a particular ink and substrate combination. 1These materials are available from IGT Testing Systems, www.igt.nl.

Equivalent products may be used if they can be shown to lead to the same results. 2These materials are available from prüfbau, Dr.-Ing. H. Dürner GmbH, www.pruefbau.de.

NEN-ISO 15397 specifies the list of relevant properties of paper substrates to be communicated between the paper and printing industries. This International Standard is applicable to papers intended to be printed in rotogravure, cold-set web offset, heat-set web offset, sheet-fed offset, and flexographic printing processes and to proofing substrates. Where multiple methods exist, the preferred procedure and its International Standard are specified. All methods for measuring of properties specified in this International Standard are described in other ISO Standards.

This part of ISO 11084 specifies the shapes, dimensions and positions for the pins and holes of a register system used to achieve accurate image positioning on a printing forme during the plate-making operations undertaken during the printing forme preparation process. It is also applicable to plate-bending equipment and transfer systems required to convert between register pin systems. This part of ISO 11084 is applicable to prepress pin registering system for plate making using printing formes ? 420 mm x 594 mm (A2). It is applicable by analogy to the pin register systems of printing presses.

This standard applies to remanufactured and compatible ink cartridges for operation in a typical office
environment. The objective of the standard is to provide two areas for common testing:
1. Provide test methodologies to assess potential cartridge/ink interactions with the printer/printhead and
to safeguard the continuous functioning of the printer and printhead.
2. Measurement of yield
No other claims can be made from this testing regarding image quality, reliability, etc.
In general throughout the text, only printers and prints are mentioned for the purpose of simplification.
Nevertheless this standard also applies to copiers, fax machines and multifunction machines as well as to
the copies and facsimiles produced by them however the methods described in this standard are for use on
the digital input printing part of any of these systems.
