harmless to human body and living things. Printed materials should not be rich in

toxic substances, or the content of toxic substances should be controlled below

the relevant standards. No pollution and no pollution. In the entire life cycle of

printed products, the environment should not be polluted or cause public hazards,

that is, the whole life process from raw material collection, data processing, product

production, product use, waste recycling, to final disposal should not

be harmful to the human body. and environment pollution.
