Pretreatment device

A pretreatment device comprising:

• a platen;
• an application portion configured to apply a pretreatment agent onto a recording medium set on the platen, wherein
• the application portion includes a spray that is configured to spray the pretreatment agent and that is provided so as to be movable in the press direction;
• a heat press portion configured to perform a heat press operation on the recording medium, to which the pretreatment agent has been applied by the application portion, wherein
• the heat press portion performs processes including:
• performing the heat press operation using a first time period and a first temperature when the spray is positioned at a first position, and
• performing the heat press operation using one of a second time period that is shorter than the first time period and a second temperature that is lower than the first temperature when the spray is positioned at a second position positioned further in the press direction than the first position;
• and
• a guide configured to guide a movement of the platen from a set position at which the recording medium is set on the platen to a press position at which the heat press portion performs the heat press operation on the recording medium via an application position at which the application portion applies the pretreatment agent onto the recording medium set on the platen, a distance between the set position and the press position being longer than a distance between the set position and the application position.
