...thinking twice about waiting for those printouts - not for the sake of the paper, but for your health. In the small study, published in the Aug. 1 issue of Environmental Science and Technology, researchers found that nearly 30% of the 62 printers they tested - including laser printers from Canon, HP, Toshiba and Ricoh - emitted high levels of ultrafine toner particles, which were potentially as hazardous as cigarette smoke. In one Brisbane office, the authors found, the concentration of particulate matter per square inch was five times higher during working hours than nonworking hours, and about 3.5 times higher inside than...
...study, Lidia Morawska, a physicist at the Queensland Institute of Technology, and her colleagues analyzed printer emissions in a large open-plan office environment. The good news was that 60% of the printers they tested, including eight HP LaserJet 4050 models, four Ricoh Aficio models and one Toshiba Studio, did not emit any particles. But of the 40% that did, many, such as the HP LaserJet 1320 and 4250 models, were classified as "high-level emitters." Emissions, researchers found, were printer-specific and fluctuated depending on the age of the toner cartridge and the amount of toner a document required...
...Since I was 11 when I first started reading HP, I feel like I grew up with Harry,” Duncan wrote. When he was young, so was I, and I wasn’t necessarily ready for the darker themes that show up in the later books. Now that I’m older, I can appreciate that Harry’s world is becoming steadily more complicated, because I, too, have had to learn that the world is not always as simple as it seemed when I was 11 years...
...right, who would be the first-ever non-U.S. bank chief; Bank of Israel governor Stanley Fischer (a U.S. citizen), middle; and former U.S. Trade Rep Robert Zoellick. One candidate from 2005, when Wolfowitz got the job, who hasn't gotten much traction this go-round: ex--HP CEO Carly Fiorina...
Difficult to accomplish? Not really, says Roger Bhalla, the director of HP's Worldwide Notebook Supply Chain Strategy and a Conversant graduate. A 40-person project to overhaul factories in six countries generated a 100-fold return on investment, he reports. Before he attended the horse program, though, "it was highly probable that the project would have stalled, based on disagreements in the team," he recalls...
