The majority of the light emitted by CFLs is localized to the visible region of the spectrum (approximately 400-700 nm in wavelength). In addition, typical CFLs emit a small amount of UVB (280-315 nm), UVA (315-400 nm) and infrared (> 700 nm) radiation.
If a CFL were to exceed allowable levels of UV (according to IESNA RP 27.3), its packaging would be required to be labeled with a caution label. This standard, which was developed with the assistance of the FDA, requires lamp manufacturers to provide a suitable caution if one is needed. At typical use distances, UV levels from CFLs fall below the level of general concern for normal, healthy individuals and therefore carry no such warning.

My dell c1765nfw laser printer scans all backgrounds pink. When I lift the laser cover the light is pink also

Your problem is that your scanner bulb or the scanner bulb power supply circuit is failing. The bulb is usually a flourecent tube. Repair parts are not commonly available, but a Dell service shop may be able to get it. This is not a software error..

Do these household light bulbs emit radiation?

There are many types of radiation! The kind of radiation that is really well known to be harmful (like an atomic blast) is called ionizing radiation and no light bulbs emit that. But light from a bulb is considered radiation and so is heat. There is also a magnetic field coming from lightbulbs. So technically yes it does.

How can I resolve canon photocopy machine with system error E007?

Dear
Its the problem related to fixing film assy. The sleeving tube over the heater might be broken. Replacing either fixing film assy.or the sleeving tube may correct the error. In very rare case other like sleeving tube rotation sensor or harnesss or DC CON board fails. Still its very rare.
Thanks.

What is a full spectrum fluorescent tube?

Full spectrum tubes imitate a natural sunlight by emitting light in every spectral range. All the different colors of visible light and a very small amount of ultraviolet are emitted. Its purpose is similar to the daylight fluorescent tubes.

OPENED UP DOOR - PUT GLASS CUP IN TO HEAT WATER AND IT WOULDN'T HEAT. CLOCK IS ON AND LIGHT COMES ON. COULD THIS BE A FUSE???

Chances are that the high voltage circuit or possibly the magnetron tube may be defective...the fuse inside is for the whole unit..,.the magnetron tube is the device that emits the microwave radiation...you may need to have a qualified person examine the unit to see what is bad inside..I don't recommend unqualified persons doing this as there are potentially FATAL voltages inside needed to power up the mag tube(around 2100VAC)...If the service man tells you it is a mag tube then you may want to look in to purchasing a new micro..as mag tubes are very expensive

After using the monitor for more than 20 minutes eyes become watery and burning sensation starts. I am afraid if it causes heavy radiation. ...

CRT screens emit low levels of electromagnetic radiation, mainly from the back of the monitor. LCD a lot less emit less electromagnetic radiation. The backlight from a LCD screen is provided by a CCFL lamp, this is a very small fluro tube about 2mm in diameter compared with a 20-25mm normal fluro tube.
I do not think the LCD is the cause of your problem, I suggest you consult with an EYE specialist about your problem.

When I turn on the TV, I get a light green picture that fades to an even darker green and then the TV shuts off. Any ideas of what could be causing it? FD Trinitron WEGA KV-34XBR800

My thoughts is that your CRT - Tube is going out.
May be time to think of replacing it.
There is what is called an electrical Gun in the back of the tube. This is what will emit the Green, Blue and Red electron beams on the front of the screen. Sounds like something has been damaged in this gun area.

Loud buzzing noise with Whirpool microwave oven when it comes on. All lights, heating and fan seems to work but not sure why loud buzzing. What is the problem?

The loud buzzing you hear is the sound of the magnatron tube.That is what emits the microwave radiation and buzzing should be normal. The mag tube may be nearing its end at witch time you will hear no buzzing and hence no heating of foods. Replacement can be costly depending on the model so most people just opt for a new one. Hope this helps
