Abstract

Drying equipment for a printer (10) for aiding drying of a printed image on a web of print media includes a feed path through which the print media containing the printed image is fed after printing of the image on the print media. A drive arrangement drives the web through the feed path at a predetermined rate. A fluid or warm air supply duct (144) is in communication with the feed path for supplying drying fluid over at least one surface of the web and out through vents (146).
