Testing
SpencerLab evaluates color and monochrome printers in every technology class—from inkjets to lasers to digital color presses.
SpencerLab's range of standardized and custom testing services can be used throughout a product's life cycle, from technical evaluation during development through competitive positioning during product launch and mid-life marketing.
All SpencerLab testing is confidential and performed under NDA. Should test results warrant and our client desire, a Summary Report or White Paper can be generated for public release and optionally posted on our web site.
Competitive Benchmarking
Optimize positioning and develop quotable competitive advantages in Print & Image Quality, Ink/Toner Yield & Cost-per-Print, Throughput Speed Performance, Ease-of-Use & Functionality, and Reliability.
Print & Image Quality Analysis
Print Quality must be "over the bar" of acceptability for a user's intended application, or cost, speed, and functionality may not matter.
Ink/Toner Yield & Cost-per-Print
Reliably estimate how many copies of relevant test documents can be printed—and the cost of printing them.
Throughput Speed Performance
Throughput Speed Performance is more than just a number of pages-per-minute—it embodies a realistic print workflow, which is affected by numerous factors.
