When I came into my office this morning, I found that my boss moved his resin printer into my office and the setup reeks of solvent (it smells like a hundred uncapped expos). Are these fumes fine? Or am I gonna end up with half a melted brain by the end of the week?

I have no words. I feel like there needs to be better presented safety information on these printers and especially on the materials that we use with them. Some of the datasheets are sparse and it shouldn't be a pain to find the damn safety sheets. Speaking of safety sheets, your boss is required to have ones for the printer/resins/etc present at your workplace within your main Safety Data Sheet book.
