Printers dangerous like Cigarettes
I guess there was a study that said some office printers emit potentially dangerous levels of particles into the air.
"The study, conducted in a large open-plan space, found indoor particle levels in the office air increased five-fold during work hours due to printer use.
Printers emitted more particles when the toner cartridge was new, and when printing graphics and images as they required greater quantities of toner, Prof Morawska said."
Glad I'm not around a place with a lot of laser printers. :\
