DRYING DEVICE AND PRINTING DEVICE
First Claim
1. A drying device comprising:
- a supporting section configured to support a medium on which printing was performed;
a conveying section configured to convey, along a conveying region, the medium supported by the supporting section;
a heat generating section configured to heat, over a width direction, the medium supported by the supporting section;
a fix-supporting section configured to support the heat generating section fixing the heat generating section; and
a free-supporting section configured to support the heat generating section so that the heat generating section can expand and contract, whereinthe fix-supporting section is located in a first lateral region that is a region outside the conveying region in the width direction, andthe free-supporting section is located in a second lateral region that is a region outside the conveying region in the width direction and that is a region different from the first lateral region.
