HST Test Paper

HST was tested with a ink mixture of 99% ink and 1% formic acid for 5 separate runs on the same sample. Each run result showed hardly any deviation at all in the time it took in seconds to complete each run to the amount of reflectance registered. This demonstrates the accuracy and consistency expected on a calibrated HST.
