Statewide, Business Machine Products, Inc. (BMP) is one of the only companies who has made a substantial investment in testing equipment, which we feel is paramount to our ability to provide the highest quality remanufactured products.

One of the key benchmark testing tools we use is the industry-leading PRI LT-777. This very specialized piece of equipment enables us to measure the output (i.e. page yield) of a toner cartridge, the density of print on a page and qualify the 5 major components that produce the image within a toner cartridge. Unlike most firms who batch test, we individually test each and every cartridge that leaves our toner production facility.

Tests we perform on every cartridge we manufacture:

POST-TEST for a proven 0.5% fail rate:

LT-777 post-testing gives 0.5% fail rate proven over five years of data collection.

Test for potential mid-cycle failure:

Displays weaknesses or latent wear in any component.
Expose print defects up to 20,000 pages ahead of time.

Test cartridge yield performance:

Qualify the yield performance of EVERY cartridge.
Achieve product consistency with an accurate and scientific method.
Observe causes and characteristics of flow yield such as fogging back-grounding, insufficient charging, developing system flaws, toner quality and other component related causes of low yield.

Density and grayscale testing:

100% density, 10% and 25 % grayscale test on all cartridges.
Easily detect flaws in developing system flaws, toner quality and other component related causes of low yield.

Component durability analysis:

Test OPC, wiper blade, PCR, corona wire, doctor blade, developing (Mag) roller, end felts/magnet seals, end bushes, recovery blade, electrical contacts and locate mechanical faults and noises.
Reduces the number of potentially defective cartridges.
