1、Designation: F 2293 03Standard Practice forDetermining the Stain Resistance of Images Produced byInk Jet Printers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 2293; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year

2、of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers methods that can be used todetermine the stain resistance of an image produced by an inkjet p

3、rinter. Stain resistance is determined by placing a stainingagent on printed patches and visually observing a change to thepatches after the staining agent has been removed.1.2 This practice can be used to evaluate the primary printcolors (cyan, magenta, yellow and black), the secondary colors(red,

4、blue and green) and composite black (cyan plus magentaplus yellow).1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the ap

Terminology3.1 For definitions of terms, refer to Terminologies F 909,F 1125, F 1623, and F 1857.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 ink jet media, nrecording elements used by i

7、nk jetprinters to receive inks. The substrate may be paper, plastic,canvas, fabric, or other ink receptive material. The substratemay, or may not be, coated with one or more ink receptivelayers.4. Significance and Use4.1 This procedure may be used to determine how stainingagents will affect color im

8、ages produced by ink jet printers.4.2 Five different staining agents are used to determine stainresistance, mustard (yellow), coffee (black), cola, fruit punch,and water. Additional stains may be used as appropriate.4.3 The effect of the staining agent on the print patches isdetermined visually.4.4

9、Test results are useful for specification acceptancebetween producer and user, for quality control, and for researchand product development.5. Interferences5.1 Ink jet media and ink sets may be purchased from avariety of sources and may affect the stain characteristicsproduced by a given printing sy

10、stem. A variety of media typesand ink sets may be used depending on the purpose of the test.The side of the media that should be used for imaging is theone recommended by the manufacturer/supplier.5.2 Interpretation of results should be made by one evalua-tor.5.3 Prints should be dry prior to testin

11、g since inadequatedrying time may affect the results. Twenty-four hours should besufficient for most inks and media.5.4 All comparative tests should be performed under thesame environmental and viewing conditions.5.5 The following evaluations utilize digital test originalsthat are created using pers

12、onal computer software. Always usethe same originals when comparing printers, ink sets andsubstrates.5.6 Visual interpretations of results may vary from oneindividual to another.6.

Calibration7.1 Adjust the printer used to conduct the test in accordancewith

15、the manufacturers instructions or in accordance withPractice F 1174.8. Test Specimens8.1 The test image (see Fig. 1) shall consist of a standard-ized arrangement of color patches printed using print filescontaining the appropriate printer setup specific for eachapplication. Each color patch contains

16、 four variable densitycells printed at 100 %, 75 %, 50 % and 25 % print density foreach of the primary colors of cyan, magenta, yellow and pureblack. Patches of secondary colors or a composite black (blackmade up of cyan, magenta, and yellow inks) may be added asdesired.8.2 The test image may be gen

17、erated with personal com-puter word processing, drawing/graphics, or page layout soft-ware, saved as a print file for each printer/method of printing(contributing its unique ink and ink/receiver interactions thatmay impact on the image light stability), trial-printed, andevaluated for appropriate in

18、k laydown (purity and amount) andease of printing and testing. Each print file should have itsfilename, type, and version identified in the image area and aplace for experimental notes (for example, time, printer,environmental conditions, operator). The printer settings and atrial print of each prin

19、t file version should be archived.8.3 An unprinted area should also be tested for water andstain resistance.8.4 The size of the individual color patches shall be approxi-mately 10 by 10 mm.9. Conditioning9.1 Condition the printer, supplies and test substrates 24 h inthe same atmospheric conditions a

20、s those present where the testis to be conducted.9.2 Stain resistance should be tested at least 24 h afterprinting to allow the prints to sufficiently dry.10. Procedure10.1 Lay the print out on a flat surface.10.2 Place a 0.05 cc drop or a smear of the designatedstaining agent in the center of the a

21、ppropriate patch so it wetsall four variable density cells in the test image and in anunprinted area.10.3 Let stand for approximately 15 min. The time ofexposure may be varied as desired.10.4 Blot excess with paper towel.FIG. 1 Test ImageF229303210.5 Using a moistened paper towel gently wipe the sta
