Has anyone heard about the dangers of Laserjet printer emissions?


Question:
I have one in my office and I'm all paranoid now. I know it probably takes alot to do any harm, but I'm thinking about getting an air filter! I couldn't find any more details about the printer hazards, like how much is bad or anything. Has anyone heard anything?

Answers:
Im guessing your talking about the nfused toner that probably escapes into the air? Dont worry about it they are designed to keep as much toner as possible in them because of the expense. also it clings well to things so i doubt very much makes it past the internal air filters. unless ur huffing the toner ull be fine, coal miners lived for many years breathing in millions of more times of dust than ull ever breath of toner. so relax.
They say that it dusts a li'l bit of toner while working. I wouldn't work with your head in it, but otherwise you should be fine. If you notice black dust on desks, etc that will tell you it's airborne particulate... But there is so much stuff in the air that we deal with on a daily basis, pollen, mold, etc all in the air.
