A recent article in the Daily Mail suggests that office printers MAY generate chemicals which 'can harm your lungs' -- I've just received a safety suggestion card from someone who to be polite is a whinge -- the suggestion is that all office printers are enclosed and sited in unoccupied areas -- obviously until there is more evidence to support the newspaper article I will do nothing, however if anyone out there has information which would support a 'leave alone' response (or other) I'd really like to hear it.

This was discussed several weeks ago when the article first came out - do a search and you'll find quite a lot of info on here.

Ask them where their home printer is...


I'll bet it's not shut away in the cupboard!
