    Don't snort it or eat it.
    Why do they call it common sense?

    If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

      As a copier tech or user I wouldnt worry about it. I used to do toner cartridge remanufacturing for 15 years which was 100 times worse and I have a clean bill of health.

        Read the MSDS sheets on the toner your working with.

                  I had a guy actually hit me in the face with 2 trashcans full of waste toner as a prank 25 years ago.
                  Just made me black for a while.

                  I drink, smoke and eat wrong.
                  I can't blame the toner, it is just plastic in powder form.
                  Same plastic that is in bottles and covers.

                  If you worry about what is going into your body, you can never truly enjoy life.
                  Why do they call it common sense?

                  If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                    You will notice the cumulative effect in old age long after you have retired from active service.`That is usually what happens as a result of occupational hazards. But you need not worry about that, at that age you would be editing your 'personal file' ready for the journey to the next world.

                            i've never been concerned about the effect of toner on my health, that's why customers provide me with coffee, to wash it down, i'm more concerned about the effect on my knees of spending most of my working day kneeling in front of a copier...
