4 Disposal
It is the APS owner's responsibility to ensure that waste is disposed of in accordance with all lo-
cal, state and federal regulations.
There are registered waste management companies that have been authorized by local autho-
rities to manage waste collection and disposal and that will manage waste management and
disposal on your behalf.
We recommend that you contact your local authorities for a list of authorized companies, or you
can search for the nearest authorized waste disposal company on the World Wide Web.
Make sure that any waste disposal company you engage for this task is able to provide you with
the necessary documentation proving their authority to manage and dispose of waste legally.
You will be legally responsible for failing to dispose of waste according to local, state and fe-
deral legislation.
When you have established an authorized waste management company, they will need to know
the type of chemical that requires disposal and you will need to determine the type of agree-
ment that best meets your requirements.
They will need to know the common name or chemical CAS number of the main solvent found
in the printing supplies. Used filters capture an organic solvent (ethylene glycol monobutyl ether
acetate, CAS No. 112-07-2) and other chemicals from ink vapors that can be obtained on the
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) available for all supplies at:

The APS captures organic solvents, and after removal and disposal of the filter elements, some
solvents may remain in the unit and hoses connected to the printer. If the APS is to be perma-
nently removed from operation, it is your responsibility to observe all local, state, and federal
relations related to the disposal of the components and materials of the APS.
