Density of solid black printed image:
Range, 1.01 to 1.10 (On a scale of 0 to 2.5, with 2.5 being as
dark as would be possible under most circumstances. Based
on four readings corresponding to four different locations on
the original.).
Density range for products in this class tested to date:
Ink Tests
Black Waterfastness (Drip Test):
The test measures the amount of colorant transferred from
a printed area to an unprinted area when a drip of distilled
readings are averaged for two separate drips. The sample is
allowed to dry for one hour before drip test is performed.
Two samples are tested, one at default quality and one at the
highest quality.

Black Highlighter Smearfastness:
The test measures the amount of colorant transferred from a
two types of highlighters. Density readings are taken for each
printed parallel horizontal bars to determine the amount of
black ink transferred. The sample is allowed to dry one hour
before testing. Two samples are tested (one at the default
quality and one at the highest quality setting).
