Abstract

Printer impulsive noise significantly contributes to the overall product sound quality. Printer manufacturers are seeking accurate impulsive metrics to understand and quantify customer perceptions and acceptability criteria. Numerous research papers [Baird, Inter-Noise 2005; Ali and Bray, NoiseCon 2004; etc.] have correlated both IT specific and general impulsive metrics to listening test results. These studies show that impulsive metrics that factor in frequency content have high correlation to user perception. This paper discusses the development and verification of a high frequency spectral content printer impulsive metric. This calculation excludes impulsive amplitude, using only the frequency content as a measure of user acceptability.
