Not trying to scare anyone ... but I doubt most of you know what comes out of these machines (laser printers).

I'll stick to the good-old-fashion ink-jet printer, and do the final print on someone else's laser-printer!


Interesting. That sort of concern was what finally got me to move my inkjet out of my office to another room and switch all my daily print jobs to the laser. I was getting asthma attacks, itchy eyes, and sore throats from the constant irritation of the surfactants in the liquid ink that were vaporized as the ink dried.

I guess, like most things, there is quite a bit of variability in the junk given off by different brands/models of printer AND in a specific person's reaction to it.
