ISO/IEC 24711:2007 defines a method for testing and calculation of average yield measured in the number of standard pages for a colour inkjet cartridge and a specific printer printing in a semi-continuous mode under a defined set of conditions. It uses the test page suite defined in ISO/IEC 24712. ISO/IEC 24711:2007 can also be applied to the printer component of any multifunctional device that has a digital input-printing path (i.e. multi-function devices that contain printer components).

ISO/IEC 24711 is only intended for the measurement of colour inkjet cartridge yield. No other claims can be made from this testing regarding quality, reliability, etc.
