I see more and more here about discharge printing. And I know allot here are trying it, but i know not everyone has the recommended oven length. I have a hix 1136 can i do discharge with it.

you can discharge with ANY dryer, the question is how many do you have to produce in an hr.  I saw a video on youtube of this tiny 3 ft dryer curing discharge perfectly, but SUPER slow.

I'm going to give it a try with an old Maxi-Cure. Its got 6 feet of heat. The problem is the slowest belt speed only keeps the shirt in the oven for roughly 50 seconds, so I'll definitely have to throw the shirts through twice. Hopefully by next year I'll have something with forced air.
