The cause, researchers suggest in the May 28 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, was exposure to chemicals emitted by the new device. http://health.msn.com/health-topics/allergies/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100\ 239273 Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I have heard before that laserjet printers give off ozone. I can smell something from mine when I am printing of loads of things, whereas my inkjet doesn't do that. Jenn Tha can tek t'lass outta Yorkshire...! Don't brand me, don't classify me, don't tell me what to wear. I'll be who I want to be, and I'm proud to be me.
