Abstract
A dryer for a printing press uses an electric heater to heat air that flows into an air plenum. The heated air flows out of the plenum at high velocity through an array of orifices that have a diameter of about 0.040 inch. The high velocity air impinges on ink which is printed on a web by the press.
