Types of BLI Testing
General Testing/Reports
First Look Reports
These quick two-page references analyze the newest multifunctional copier, fax
and printer products, examining what they do and how they fit into the existing
marketplace.
Productivity Reports
Based on extensive tests in our unique lab, Productivity Reports compare tested
speeds to advertised speeds of machines. These reports give an essential view of
how a machine will perform in the real world.
Field Test Reports
Product life cycles are getting shorter and shorter in the document imaging world.
Buyers, OEMs and dealers need unbiased commentary on new imaging devices earlier
than ever before. Answering this need are Buyers Lab (BLI) Field Test Reports.
BLI's Field Test Reports are a pre-lab evaluation that provides the marketplace
with an independent view on a product's features and functions, along with some
preliminary information on the performance of the product.
Lab Test Reports
Lab Test Reports, which complement the information gathered in the field, are
comprehensive laboratory evaluations that concentrate on connectivity issues in
detail, including areas such as multitasking, installing a unit on a network,
raster times, web-based administration, print drivers and administrative utilities,
as well as fax and scanning functionality, when applicable. A lab-tested unit is
installed by the manufacturer/distributor in BLI's 10,000 square foot test lab,
where BLI also conducts extensive durability testing on the product. Only units
that have completed BLI's in-house lab testing and have proven to be dependable
performers can receive BLI's “Certificate of Reliability”.
Solutions Test Reports
The MFP industry has changed dramatically over the last few years from a
collection of standalone devices that didn't integrate with other equipment,
to a networked industry of multifunctional devices that combine both hardware
and software. Purchasing solutions is very different to buying hardware because
organizations are making a long term commitment to a product without knowing
its exact benefits or how the application will interact with its other software
until after it's installed. BLI's Solutions Test Reports provide both dealers
and end users with an independent view of the solution to help them evaluate,
and buy or sell these unique products.
