Is fume extration required?
I was wondering if this would be my first resin printer however I am a little bit worried about fumes. Are there any toxic fumes during the printing process?
Does it require a hose to send the fumes throw a window?

I'm no pro but I have a form 1+ and there's no heating going on so there's really no fumes. Its all done by a laser light to uv harden the resin.

I rather call it vapor not fume. And I think yes we'll need some kind of vapor extraction pipe if the vapor absorbing design is the same as anycubic photon. The Photon has a carbon based filter and a vent which sucks the toxic vapor through the active carbon layer. I made an extraction pipe to fully eliminate the odor from my room.
I assume that we will see some exhaust designs soon.
My designs for Photon just if u like visual things:
