Abstract
An example device includes a conveyor to convey a printed medium along a path from a print engine towards a printed media output. The device further includes a housing to hold the conveyor. The housing defines an air intake, an exhaust port, and a conveyor volume to contain the conveyor. The air intake provides air to the conveyor volume to dry the printed medium. The device further includes a tortuous exhaust passage extending from the conveyor volume to the exhaust port to exhaust air from the conveyor volume.
