Exposing Film to Moisture
The Laser Imaging Films typically withstand humidity, spills, and other forms of water
without any significant effect on image quality or film integrity. If needed, film can be
cleaned with a clean, damp cloth.
Odor Dissipation
Dry technology eliminates virtually all unpleasant odors. While some low-level odors are
produced during the development process, they pose no known adverse health risks.
Processing odor levels are further reduced by a non-hazardous, recyclable filter in the
imager. This filter traps most low-level odors and prevents them from dissipating into the
work environment. To help maintain optimum performance, the filter requires periodic
replacement. The imager requires no special venting.
Heat Dissipation
The imagers use controlled heat to develop the Laser Imaging Film. The heat has virtually
no effect on the air temperature of the work area. The amount of heat dissipated into
an area during a day is typically less than the heat generated by two to four 100-watt
light bulbs.
Film Recycling
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards, the Laser Imaging
Film is not considered hazardous and requires no special disposal procedures. However,
the film does contain silver and polyester that may be recovered by using one of several
recycling processes.
