A method of carrying out ink jet printing includes the steps of: introducing a cloth on which ink jet printing is to be carried out onto a cloth feeding drum having a plurality of support pins for holding the cloth on the cloth feeding drum; and moving the support pins in the radial direction of the cloth feeding drum at least when the cloth is introduced onto the cloth feeding drum. Further, the method may also include the step of moving the support pins in the axial direction of the cloth feeding drum to apply a tension to the cloth held by the support pins on the cloth feeding drum after the cloth is introduced onto the cloth feeding drum. A cloth feeding drum for use in ink jet printing includes a cloth feeding drum having a plurality of support pins for holding a cloth on which ink jet printing is to be carried out on the cloth feeding drum; and a mechanism provided within the cloth feeding drum for moving the support pins in the radial direction of the cloth feeding drum at least when the cloth is introduced onto the cloth feeding drum. The cloth feeding drum may further include a mechanism for moving the support pins in the axial direction of the cloth feeding drum so as to apply a tension to the cloth held by the support pins. These mechanisms are actuated at least when the cloth is introduced onto the cloth feeding drum and after the cloth is introduced onto the cloth feeding drum, respectively.
