   print speed. Black and color print
   speeds are determined in default,
   single-side mode, in accordance with
   ISO/IEC 24734. Actual print tiems will
   vary based on system configuration,
   software, and page complexity. See
   www.epson.com/printspeed for details,
   including complete ISO reports.

   continuous printing of a suite of five
   black and color pages as required by
   ISO/ IEC 24711 and 24712. Actual yields
   will vary considerably for reasons
   including images printed, print
   settings, temperature and humidity.
   Yields may be lower when printing
   infrequently or predominantly with one
   ink color. A variable amount of ink
   remains in the cartridges after the
   "replace cartridge" signal. Part of the
   ink from the first cartridges is used
   for priming the all-in-one. Ink is
   used for both printing and print head
   maintenance. All inks are used for both
   black and color printing. For more
   information about yields for this all-
   in-one, see http://www.epson.com/
