The one I designed is specifically for a weekly test, and will point out ink/toner problems while not using much ink/toner.įor each tested color (cyan, magenta, yellow, black, magenta/yellow, cyan/yellow and cyan/magenta), it shows a series of 15mm lines at 2.0, 1.0, 0.75, 0.5 and 0.25 points. It’s not comprehensive there are better tests out there for when you suspect something is wrong, for example it doesn’t test gradients. We have designed this vector image of a printer test page so that you can check that your printer is working correctly. But with the new printer, I decided to design my own test page.

This was a cropped test print I found online, and mostly did the job. I use to have a weekly test print sent to the Canon, to prevent the nozzles from seizing and to notice when the ink cartridges were empty. It’s replacing my old laser printer (Brother HL-2270DW) and inkjet (Canon MX922), the latter I got sick of being, well, an inkjet printer. This week I bought a new color laser printer, a Brother HL-3170CDW.
