For that study, the air contaminations with VOCs, ozone and ultrafine particle were monitored in the indoor air of a room containing either a laser printer or ink-jet printer. The results confirm that an office or residential printer may be a source of indoor air contamination, with VOCs , particles but also ultrafine particles and other contaminants.
