Abstract
An arrangement in communication with a printer. The printer includes at least a print-head configured to deposit liquid ink on an area on a surface of a substrate. The liquid ink comprises a solvent portion and a dry content. The arrangement comprises at least one nozzle configured to generate a stream of gas over said area with a gas stream velocity and/or gas stream shape, such that an evaporation rate of the solvent portion of the liquid ink is increased and a rate of change of velocity of the gas stream propagation increases with a distance normal to a direction of a gas flow and is maximized over the surface of the substrate and the deposited ink.
