Modelling over- and underdispersed frequencies of successful ink transmissions onto paper

This work focuses on the statistical modelling of successful or failed ink transmission during the printing of packaging paper. The main aim is to explain the probability of successful ink transmission with the help of a regression model. But many of the applied logistic regression models show that the variabilities of various samples from the printability data set range from much smaller to much larger values than the variability assumed in a binomial model. Hence, the main part of this paper concentrates on the discussion of distribution families that are capable of handling such a wide spectrum of different variations of frequency data.
