Section 6: Accidental Release Measures

Spill / leak Procedures: If spilled, sweep up using an approved toner vacuum with a 0.5 micron filter or smaller, such as the Atrix

AAAToner Vacuum or 3M Toner Vacuum. Use of a vacuum cleaner not rated for toner particles, could result in a fire or personal injury. Remove residue with soap and cold water.

Miscellaneous: Keep product out of sewers and watercourses.

Personal protection: Avoid inhalation of dust.

	Section 7: Handling and Storage
Special Handling:	Cleanse skin after contact before breaks or meals, and end of workday.
	Do not handle in areas where the wind blows.
Special Storage:	Minimize the breathing of dust.
	Avoid direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place. Below 35C (95F)
	Section 8: Exposure Control and Personal Protection Information:

Respiratory Protection: none required under normal use.

Eye Protection: none required under normal use.

Hand Protection: none required under normal use.

Skin Protection: none required under normal use.

Special effects: Carcinogenicity: In 1996 the IARC reclassified Carbon Black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This evaluation is given to carbon black for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence. The latter is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats have not demonstrated an association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, 2-years cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black did not demonstrate an association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats. Teratogenicity: Not available

	Section 12: Environmental / Ecological Information
Bioaccumulation:	Not known in bioaccumulation

	Section 13: Disposal Consideration

Used toner should be disposed of under conditions that meet all federal, state and local environmental regulations. Disposal regulations vary from locality to locality; therefore consult your local Lanier office or the EPA to determine the proper method for disposal. Do not incinerate loose or spilled toner.
