Every Sunday morning a program from Australia is broadcast on the CBC radio from 5 - 6:00 am.
In addition to ordinary events a segment comes on around 5:30 a.m. telling about recent research they have been working with. This weekend they told about the harmful components contained in the toner of laser printer dust. This invisible liquid mist penetrates into the lungs and can create irritation that could result in heart and respiratory problems - similar to the harm caused by tobacco smoke.
When the printer buyer inquires about the validity of this research, the sellers say they do not know. Further research is being conducted in Germany. They suggest that laser printers should be kept on another desk, a little distance from the operater and that good ventilation be maintained as well.
