Summary and Scope of Analysis

For more than 25 years, QualityLogic Inc. has been a premier developer and provider of essential testing solutions to companies that design, build, or purchase printers and printing technology. Our products and services help our customers understand how the products they make or buy conform to specifications, or compare to reference implementations or competing products. We actively monitor and support international standards organizations, and provide testing assistance to leading technology publications who publish printer reviews. At the request of Eastman Kodak Company, QualityLogic calculated and compared the Cost of Ink Per Page (CoIPP) of the selected Kodak All-in-One printers to 19 competing printers selected by Kodak. Kodaks intent was to select printers with significant market share from leading manufacturers. Monochrome and color cartridge yields for all printers were determined following ISO yield standards, and photo yields were determined using QualityLogics photo yield methodology*. Ink prices for the competing printers in the test were provided to QualityLogic by gap intelligence**, a premier global provider of market intelligence. gap intelligence provided the manufacturers suggested retail price (MSRP) for each of the cartridges in the test based on information collected through Q3 2011. If the cartridge price wasnt available on the manufacturers website, gap intelligence provided an average of three reseller street prices. Kodak provided the manufacturers suggested retail price (MSRP) for each of the Kodak cartridges in the test based on pricing as of Q1, 2012. For this report, complete sets of standard as-shipped-in-box cartridges or the standard-yield ink cartridges were evaluated for the purpose of making like-basis comparisons between all printers. For the printer where a complete set of standard cartridges was not available, a complete set of high-yield cartridges was evaluated. Ink cost comparisons are made using single quantity cartridge pricing (i.e., no multi-packs, combo packs, value packs or special promotions.) Although there are many factors in total cost of ownership, Cost of Ink Per Page (CoIPP) is an important factor when evaluating total cost of ownership with printer systems. Cost of Ink Per Page was calculated by dividing these cartridge prices by the yield of each cartridge in the test.

Methodology for Calculation of Cost of Ink Per Page

The following is a step-by-step outline of how QualityLogic, using standardized yield testing methodologies and standard pricing information provided by gap intelligence, executed this Cost of Ink Per Page test for Kodak.
A. QualityLogic Yield Declarations

Yield testing is a process by which the target printers are operated with their ink or toner cartridges to deplete the amount of ink/toner, and then pages printed are counted to determine the number of pages each cartridge yields. The requirements and operating conditions of such testing are determined by a standard set of testing criteria that will provide an objective and repeatable result. QualityLogic is a leader worldwide in providing yield testing services. We support and follow the ISO (International Standards Organization) standards for mono and color testing. Use of the ISO standards for yield testing is also supported by leading manufacturers, including Canon, Dell, Epson, HP, IBM, Kodak, Lexmark, Oki Data, Pitney Bowes, Ricoh, Toshiba, Xerox, and others. The photo yield testing included in this report was completed using the QualityLogic photo yield methodology. ISO announced the release of the new ISO/IEC 29102 photo yield standard in 2011. Kodak and QualityLogic are evaluating the new ISO standard for use with future testing. Key provisions of ISO and QualityLogic standards include: Standard test suites Minimum of nine cartridges across three printers representative of products in open market Clear, objective end-of-life criteria Controlled test environment temperature, continuous printing Yield reporting requirement well defined The following pages contain tables that relate to yield testing results. The tables show the number of pages per cartridge that can be expected with 90 percent confidence based on our testing. Numbers in black indicate primary cartridges any cartridge where a minimum of nine cartridges across three printers could be exhausted. Supplemental cartridges are indicated by red numbers and represent those cartridges that are secondary to the purpose of the test. Although supplemental cartridges are not the key focus in the tests as shown, they are included in the test reports to ensure we get a complete understanding of the ink being used. 8
Generally, the primary cartridges for each category of testing are: Mono ink the black cartridge Color ink all full density cartridges containing cyan, magenta, yellow and black Photo ink color cartridges or others where nine cartridges were exhausted QualityLogic performed yield tests and provided yield test reports for all cartridges for models listed below (with some of the same models also available in Europe and in North America). Each table has abbreviated sub-headings that represent the specific ink cartridge types as follows: CMY = A single cartridge containing cyan, magenta and yellow C = Cyan M = Magenta Y = Yellow K1 = Black K2 = A second black cartridge LC = Light or photo cyan LM = Light or photo magenta GY = Grey These yield numbers apply to printers included in this analysis. Yields of primary and supplemental cartridges are reported, and the details of these results can be found in Appendix B.

B. Ink Cartridge Pricing

The competitor printer cartridge prices used in this Cost of Ink Per Page analysis were researched and provided to QualityLogic by gap intelligence as of Q3 2011. gap intelligences methodology for data collection used the manufacturers website for the United Kingdom. Kodak cartridge prices were provided to QualityLogic by Kodak as of Q1 2012. For this report, complete sets of standard as-shipped-in-box cartridges or the standard-yield ink cartridges were evaluated for the purpose of making like-basis comparisons between all printers. For the printer where a complete set of standard cartridges was not available, a complete set of high-yield cartridges was evaluated. Ink cost comparisons are made using single quantity cartridge pricing (i.e., no multi-packs, combo packs, value packs or special promotions.) Below is the summary of the ink cartridges and their individual prices.

Appendix A: Test Methodology Summary
In order to obtain these yield results, two different methodologies were used in combination with three test suites. This section will detail the common areas between the methodologies, the differences between them, and highlight some key terms from ISO/IEC 24711, 24712, and 19752 that are particularly important to understand when reviewing these yield claims. Common Methodology and Definitions
Number of Printers Tested Number of Cartridges Tested Temperature Fade Ink Out End of Life (EOL) Semi-Continuous Printing Minimum of three Minimum of nine of each primary cartridge Testing room average 23.0C 2C with all running average temperatures between 20.0C and 26.0C Phenomenon in which a significant reduction in uniformity occurs due to ink depletion Signal generated by the printing system when the usable ink in the system is depleted and the printer stops printing A condition determined by one of two mechanisms: fade or ink out (only if ink out stops printing) Printing in a continuous manner, pausing only for intra-job servicing, printer calibrations, paper changes, breaks, and end of work days Cartridge Yield (in pages) that is at or below the lower 90% confidence bound of the average yield Estimated yield for a supplemental cartridge (real or estimated with use of a proxy) calculated with at least three cartridges Average yield for a supplemental cartridge where EOL was reached on at least nine cartridges (three per printer) A primary cartridge of the same physical size as a supplemental cartridge which had a starting weight within +/- 10% of the supplemental cartridge starting weight
