Researchers Investigate Whether Laser Printers Emit Pathogenic Toner Particles into the Air

Could the humble laser printer be responsible for poor health among office workers? These printers, it has been said, could be to blame for the release of tiny particles of toner-like material into the air. These particles would then be inhaled by consumers deep into their lungs, triggering health-related problems. Now scientists investigating this preconception have come up with surprising results.
