Until the ink and shirt reach the temperature spec of the ink.

Buy an oven thermometer. You can't OVER cure textile ink at 325 degrees F. You can over heat the shirt over 420 degrees F.

You will stink up your oven.

Not only stink it up, but will deposit toxics so, you don't want to use an oven that you still plan on baking food in.
Be safe.
Why not be safer and use a heat gun for now?
