This part of ISO 12653 specifies a test target for use in assessing the consistency of quality of performance over time of flat-bed and rotary black-and-white reflection scanners used in electronic image management systems. The test target is designed:

• to allow routine checks of the system's performance;
• to establish the performance limits of the system.

This part of ISO 12653 is applicable to assessing the output quality of black-and-white scanners used for black-and-white or colour office documents, with or without half-tone or colour.

It is not applicable to colour scanners or scanners used for the scanning of transparent or translucent documents.
