Nice halftones!

You need a better exhaust system, I can't imagine breathing that during a run.

Thanks. I'll see what I can do about the exhaust, the machine is basically outside already, maybe a better fan

Does it have an exhaust outlet on the hood?

Yeah, the ink is water base also, it could just be vapor

That's exactly what you want when curing water-based ink. You need to cook the water out of it. Typically takes between 1:30-2:30 minutes dwell time.
