    Default Health effects of ozone, oil vapors, paper vapors?

    Anyone have knowledge of health effects of ozone or any other vapors that come off of oil using cmyk digital printers or uv coaters? I am also curious about thick papers, are they made with formaldehyde and how this affects room vapors when going through a printer that applies intense heat and oil? Is ventilation needed? Any opinions or comments are welcome. I'm just trying to gather information to learn more about what needs to be considered. Thanks!

    Get a Material Safety Data Sheet from each supplier this should answer most if not all of your questions on chemical safety.

    Ozone is a free radical, once out, normally reacts and nullifies it's self...... smell is sickly sweet.
    It's more if the light is leaking, damage to skin and eyes.

    On chemicals get the MSDS sheets, would suggest you have your air monitored for VOC's to see if you are in excess of the PEL.
