Comparison between the average yield (A4 prints of ISO/IEC 24712 test pattern) of EcoTank “102” and “104” ink bottle series and the genuine consumables (IDC, Hardcopy Peripherals Consumables Tracker, 2021 shipments, published Q1 2022) used within the 30 best-selling consumer A4 inkjet cartridge printers in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and UK (IDC, Quarterly Hardcopy Peripherals Tracker, 2021 shipments, published Q2 2022).
