Drying apparatus and printing apparatus

A drying apparatus comprising:

• a drying furnace which a medium to be conveyed enters;
• a heater configured to heat the medium in the drying furnace;
• an exhaust section configured to exhaust air from the drying furnace;
• and
• a movable section configured to move, wherein
• an intake port through which air flows from an outside of the drying furnace into the drying furnace opens in the drying furnace,
• the exhaust section includes
• a duct extending from the drying furnace and
• a fan configured to exhaust the air from an inside of the drying furnace toward the outside of the drying furnace through the duct, and
• the movable section moves to thereby adjust at least one of a volume and a wind speed of air flowing along the medium in the drying furnace.

A printing apparatus comprising:

• a printing section configured to print an image on a medium;
• a drying furnace which the medium printed enters;
• a heater configured to heat the medium in the drying furnace;
• an exhaust section configured to exhaust air from the drying furnace;
• and
• a movable section configured to move, wherein
• an intake port through which air flows from an outside of the drying furnace into the drying furnace opens in the drying furnace,
• the exhaust section includes
• a duct extending from the drying furnace and
• a fan configured to exhaust the air from an inside of the drying furnace toward the outside of the drying furnace through the duct, and
• the movable section moves to thereby adjust at least one of an intake volume of the air inflowing through the intake port and an exhaust volume of the air discharged from the drying furnace.

A printing apparatus comprising:

• a printing section configured to print an image on a medium;
• a drying furnace which the medium printed enters;
• a heater configured to heat the medium in the drying furnace;
• an exhaust section configured to exhaust air from the drying furnace;
• and
• a movable section configured to move, wherein
• an intake port through which air flows from an outside of the drying furnace into the drying furnace opens in the drying furnace,
• the exhaust section includes
• a duct extending from the drying furnace and
• a fan configured to exhaust the air from an inside of the drying furnace toward the outside of the drying furnace through the duct, and
• the movable section moves to thereby adjust at least one of a volume and a wind speed of air flowing along the medium in the drying furnace.
