Ozone Safety
Ozone emission
Ozone gas is generated by laser printers as a by-product of the
printing process. Ozone is produced only when the printer is
printing.
Ozone exposure limit
The recommended exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 parts per
million (ppm) expressed as an average time-weighted
concentration over an eight (8) hour period.
The EPL-5800L laser printer generates less than 0.1 ppm for
8 hours of continuous printing.
Minimize exposure risk
To minimize the risk of exposure to ozone:
Do not use more than one laser printer in a confined area (see
"Ozone exposure limit" above)
Do not use your printer in conditions of extremely low
humidity
Do not use your printer in a room with poor ventilation
Avoid long, continuous printing in any of the conditions
mentioned above
Printer location
The printer should be located so that the exhaust gases and
generated heat are:
Not blown directly into the user's face
Vented directly out of the building whenever possible
