STMC
STMC stands for the
Standardized Test Methods Committee. This global committee was
formed to find and promote standardized test methods for the
printer cartridge industry. The test methods are used to evaluate
printer toner cartridge performance. Standardized test methods
make it possible to evaluate a cartridge anywhere and come up
with the same test results no matter who tests it. Standardized
tests do not specify how a cartridge must perform; they only
measure it.
ASTM International
(American Society for Testing and Materials), is an independent
organization of volunteers that work under very strict rules that force objectivity
to write test methods. The STMC has
accepted several ASTM test methods as well as ISO, ISTA, and
ANSI test methods.
Why
is it important?
A company that is STMC certified is one that has had their employees
successfully trained by an
authorized trainer in these test methods, attests to using these
test methods, and has purchased the
correct test equipment. The Int'l ITC maintains a list of certified
companies.
What
does this mean?
A company that is
STMC certified has proven to be highly dedicated to producing
the absolute highest quality cartridges possible, often even
surpassing the OEM. These companies dedicate a substantial amount
of time, money and resources to the development and continuous
testing of their cartridges to ensure the highest overall value
to the consumer, and therefore, the lowest total cost. All with
documented, quantifiable proof that most other companies simply
can not provide.
BENDIX imaging, inc. is the ONLY company in the area that is
STMC certified and that has dedicated themselves to this level
- the highest quality standards and practices in the industry.
So if you want the
highest quality, the lowest total cost and the most reliable
products for your organization - there is only 1 choice - BENDIX
imaging, inc.
