It strikes me that the best adaptation would involve a filter in the airstream either to or from the fan - that way the excess ink vapour could be removed, whilst leaving the heat evenly distributed where it needs to be!

I must admit I've not had a problem with gas and ink in my oven when I print. I tend to put a piece of paper between the transfer and the wrap which seems to trap any leaking ink.

If you suck the gas out you are also sucking the heat out with it, causing more problems. The only way to reduce the gas successfully will be to reduce the number of mugs in the oven.

The benefit of a commercial oven is that you can find one with a higher power rating than with a domestic oven, theoretically giving a more stable temperature and heat distribution, meaning you shouldn't need the fan. You can go up to about 3kw on 13amps - a domestic oven is unlikely to be much more than 2kw.
Thanks for your reply.

I guess, my thinking here is, if the only way to reduce the gases in the oven is to reduce the number of mugs in there... wouldn't that defeat the objective of having an oven? (To be able to press a lot of mugs at one time) :confused:

What kind of oven do you use?
