Chronic Health Hazards:
Prolonged inhalation of excessive dust may cause lung damage. It is attributed to “lung
overloading”, a generic response to excessive amounts of any dust retained in the lungs
for a prolonged interval. Use of this product, as intended, does not result in inhalation of
excessive dust. In a study in rats by chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild
to moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of rats in the high concentration
(16mg/m
for a prolonged interval. Use of this product, as intended, does not result in inhalation of
excessive dust. In a study in rats by chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild
to moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of rats in the high concentration
(16mg/m
3
) exposure group, and a minimal to mid degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of
the animals in the middle (4mg/m
3
) exposure group. But no pulmonary change was
reported in the lowest (1mg/m
3
) exposure group, the most relevant level to potential
human exposures.
Carcinogenicity: Not meet the criteria for classification according to EU Directive 1999/45/EC
Carbon Black is classified as “Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans)” by IARC,
the International Agency for Research on Cancer. With excessive exposure, carbon black
has been listed as a possible human carcinogen. However, we obtained the results from a
Chronic Toner Inhalation Study, that commercially available toner has no evidence of
human carcinogens. All other ingredients are not classified as “Carcinogens”.

Titanium dioxide is classified as “possibly carcinogenic to human” (Group 2B). In animal
chronic inhalation studies, the tumor formulation observed in only rats with animal chronic
inhalation study are attributed to “lung overloading”, a generic response to excessive
amounts of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged interval. Use of this product, as
intended, dose not result in inhalation of excessive dust. Epidemiological study to data
have not revealed any evidence of the relation between exposure to titanium dioxide and
diseases of the respiratory tract beyond general effects of dust.
