Laser printers and ozone

From: Heather Place <conservator>
Date: Thursday, July 5, 2001
We are currently looking to purchase a printer for our vault
technician to use while working in our main vault. There has been a
concern raised regarding the off-gassing of ozone from a laser
printer and its effect on nearby works of art. Does anyone have any
information on this? If they do give off ozone, is the amount enough
to cause a concern, or is it negligible? Any help would be
appreciated.
