Handle magnetic clamps safely
WARNING: If you have an implanted cardiac pacemaker or automatic implantable
cardioverter defibrillator (AICD), keep the drum's magnetic trailing-edge clamps
more than 15 cm (6 in.) away from your implant, especially when holding the
clamps in your hands to reposition them on the drum. Exposure to a strong
magnetic field can switch pacemakers and AICDs from their normal mode of
operation to a diagnostic mode, which may be hazardous if prolonged. For more
information, contact your physician and/or the manufacturer of your implant.

CAUTION:
Wear protective gloves when handling the drum trailing-edge
magnetic clamps, and don't put your fingers between the clamps and the drum
surface. Otherwise, you may pinch unprotected fingers between the trailing-edge
clamps and the drum, resulting in minor or moderate injury.
Airborne emissions
Kodak has a media qualification process that tests many types of
media for various emissions. Certain media types require a Universal
Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC) to filter potentially harmful airborne
emissions that are released during imaging.
If you have a platesetter, the type of media you are using determines
whether you require a UDRC to filter potentially harmful particulate
