To prevent the deterioration of image quality due to distortion of a fabric occurring during conveyance.SOLUTION: A drying device 1 which is located between a printing device 7 which performs printing on a first surface 5 of a fabric 3 which is conveyed in a conveyance direction F and a receiving device 9 which receives the fabric which has passed through the printing device includes a blowing unit 13 through which a gas 11 can be blown out onto the first surface 5, and a suction unit 17 which is located closer to a second surface 15 of the fabric 3 in a blowing direction B of the blowing unit 13 and can suck the gas 11. The blowing unit 13 is formed so that it blows out the gas 11 with the second surface 15 of the fabric 3 being supported, in a conveyable manner, by supporting members 14 and 20 respectively on the upstream side and the downstream side of the blowing unit 13 and the suction unit 17 in the conveyance direction F. Also, the blowing direction B in which the gas 11 is blown out is towards the downstream side in the conveyance direction F.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】布帛の搬送の際の変形による画質の低下を抑制すること。【解決手段】搬送方向Ｆに搬送される布帛３の第１面５に印刷する印刷装置７と、前記印刷装置を通った前記布帛を受け入れる受入装置９との間に位置する乾燥装置１は、第１面５に気体１１を吹き出し可能な吹出部１３と、吹出部１３の吹き出し方向Ｂにおいて布帛３の第２面１５側に位置して気体１１を吸引可能な吸引部１７とを備える。吹出部１３は、布帛３が吹出部１３及び吸引部１７の搬送方向Ｆにおける上流の位置及び下流の位置において各支持部材１４、２０によって第２面１５を搬送可能に支持された状態で気体１１を吹き出すように構成されている。そして、気体１１の吹き出し方向Ｂは搬送方向Ｆの下流側である。【選択図】図１
