Epson C8600 User Manual

Ozone gas is generated by laser printers as a by-product of the 

printing process. Ozone is produced only when the printer is 

printing.

The recommended exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 parts per 

million (ppm) expressed as an average time-weighted 

concentration over an eight (8) hour period.

The EPSON AcuLaser C8600 laser printer generates less than 

0.1 ppm for 8 hours of continuous printing.

To minimize the risk of exposure to ozone, you should avoid the 

following conditions: 

❏

Use of multiple laser printers in a confined area (see above)

❏

Operation in conditions of extremely low humidity

❏

Poor room ventilation

❏

Long, continuous printing together with any of the above

The printer should be located so that the exhaust gases and heat 

generated are:

❏

Not blown directly into the user’s face

❏

Vented directly out of the building whenever possible
