• There are normally no special problems with storage and transport in a cold
climate but, store in a low humidity condition. Do not put supplies near heaters.
5) Safety and hygiene
Toner has the property of easily being wind blown. Toner on skin does not
cause any damage to health but, inhaling it is undesirable even if a powder is
simply dust. Therefore, be careful not to inhale toner .
• Handle the toner gently when changing cartridges, and developer when pouring
in the developer unit. If you have breathed in a lot of toner by mistake, rinse
out your mouth with water completely. Any toner on the skin should be washed
off with soapy water.
• Toner stuck on clothing must be removed in a dry condition (by a vacuum
cleaner, brush, or beating,) and then washed with soapy water. Wiping off with
benzine, alcohol, or thinner is not recommended because it may partially melt
the components of toner even more, resulting in a harder stain and spot.
• Toner spilled must be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, and then wiped with a
cloth dampened with a neutral detergent and wrung out.
• If exposed to flames toner and developer will burn. Keep these supplies away
from open flames.
• Any wasted consumables (photo receptor, developer and toner) should be
recycled.
• Wear rubber gloves, eye protection and so on before handling any solvents
such as IPA.
