1. A method of scoring quality of a printer, the method comprising:
capturing a first set of multiple frames that are at least partially of a first printout;
compiling the first set of multiple frames into a first image;
capturing a second set of multiple frames that are at least partially of a second printout that is printed at a later time than the first printout;
compiling the second set of multiple frames into a second image;
evaluating a property of the first and second images; and
providing, based on the evaluated property, a first numeric quality score for the first image and a second numeric quality score for the second image.
