print speed
Pages per minute
Print speed is how fast a printer produces pages, typically measured in pages per minute.
Laser printers advertise high print speeds for text documents; photo printers measure in seconds per print.
The claimed speed often assumes ideal conditions—draft mode, black-and-white only—rather than typical use: The print speed drops significantly when printing in color.
