This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. See Section for specific hazards statements.

Subjective comparative evaluation of copies made from the same test originals can be used to determine the usefulness of a given toner supply in a specific user application.
