Less Impact On The Environment; Storage And Handling Of Undeveloped Film - Kodak DryView 8100 User Manual

Less Impact on the Environment

Disposal regulations and procedures for "wet" processing chemistry are
time-consuming and expensive. And even with the most exacting procedures, the
potential exists to discharge hazardous materials into the environment.
Tests show that DryView Laser Imaging Film is not considered hazardous to the
environment. As a result, you can develop, recycle, and dispose of films with less
impact on the environment than if you were using wet developed silver halide films.

Storage and Handling of Undeveloped Film

As with other laser imaging films, to achieve consistent
results up to the expiration date indicated on the film
package, DryView Laser Imaging Film must be stored
in a cool, dry place (41°F/5°C to 77°F/25°C) and
protected from radiation and chemistry fumes.
The film can also withstand short-term temperature spikes (up to 95°F/35°C for
several hours) during transit without any significant effect on film quality or
performance. Transit temperatures above 95°F/35°C will gradually diminish shelf life.
If the Automatic Image Quality Control system (AIQC) encounters film that has been
damaged by improper handling, it will automatically alert system operators before
the film is developed.
