Withdrawn Rationale:
This practice covers a procedure to determine the weight of toner used for printing a single page derived from an electrophotographic process. The practice uses a printer text target specifically developed for each printer for a page coverage of 5 ± 0.5 % of the printable area. This practice requires specific tools and skills for disassembling and reassembling printer cartridges.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee F05 on Business Imaging Products, this practice was withdrawn in June 2017 in accordance with Section 10.6.3 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.
