  Hello all,

  Way back when, there was some discussion on laser products
classifications.

  Right now, we are new to the use of lasers and their regulations. I
have
  some basic knowledge of the regulations, due to long ago testing of
them,
  and my gray matter is not what it used to be.

  I would appreciate some assistance in the following:

  1) Where do I get the latest copy of the CDRH report?
     Name, contact, address, tel., etc.

  2) Filing procedures. I suspect it will be in the CDRH report that
must be
  filled out. As I remember it, it was every year and I had to note the
  vendors model name, quantity and what product we were using the laser
for.

  3) Labeling format will be in 21 CFR section 1040????

  4) Any European document detailing who tests the laser for proper
  usage/application in a larger product, labeling requirements (multiple
  language????)

  Any addition information would be most appreciated, as it is sometimes
  difficult to ask the right questions.
