The consumables for the printer are very often OSHA items and should have SDSs on file. And there are already some studies of the nanoparticles and other good stuff coming off the various processes used. While the worst are the powder printers, the ABS plastic string type are no day at the beach either in terms of emissions. We want them vented.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Interesting TSCA Issue
Here is an interesting TSCA issue - the product of the printer is an object and therefore wouldn't be a TSCA applicable item. However, there was a similar issue with carbonless paper when it first came out and that was determined to be a chemical under TSCA. So - let the discussion begin.
