Need help with ideas of printer placement/venting (if needed).

Troubleshooting

My 3D printer is set to arrive tomorrow. Totally overlooked the fact that the 3D printer will produce noxious fumes wherever it is placed 🀦🏼. As it is I'm trying to sell the idea of getting a 3D printer to my wife to begin with... I know this will be a deal killer... Before I even get to print my first ANYTHING I know she'll shut down the whole operation if it creates anything worse than a breath of fresh air (literally). I have a garage but worry about the garage overall being too hot throughout the day for printing plus I'd still need a vent to maybe go under the garage door and you close the garage door on top of it. Idk if any of this is feasible or if I'm just over thinking given I'm totally new to 3D printing. Help would be πŸ’― πŸ”₯ πŸ™πŸ» πŸ‘πŸ». Thanks in advance.
