Zusammenfassung:	An inkjet printer includes a dryer configured to attenuate the effects of temperature differentials arising in substrates that are caused by holes in a medium transport belt and a platen covering a vacuum plenum. The dryer includes a heater, a medium transport belt cooler, and a medium transport belt. The medium transport belt is configured to move substrates past the heater after ink images have been formed on the substrates and the medium transport belt cooler is positioned to remove heat energy from the medium transport belt after the medium transport belt has passed the heater and the substrates have separated from the medium transport belt. The substrate cooler is configured to reduce the temperature of the medium transport belt to a temperature that attenuates image defects arising from temperature differentials in the medium transport belt when the medium transport belt is opposite the heater. 잉크젯 프린터는 진공 플리넘을 덮는 플래튼 및 매체 이송 벨트 내의 구멍들에 의해 야기되는 기재 내에서 발생하는 온도차의 영향을 감소시키도록 구성된 건조기를 포함한다. 건조기는 히터, 매체 이송 벨트 냉각기, 및 매체 이송 벨트를 포함한다. 매체 이송 벨트는 잉크 이미지가 기재 상에 형성된 후에 기재를 히터를 지나 이동시키도록 구성되며, 매체 이송 벨트 냉각기는 매체 이송 벨트가 히터를 통과하고 기재가 매체 이송 벨트로부터 분리된 후에 매체 이송 벨트로부터 열에너지를 제거하도록 위치된다. 기재 냉각기는 매체 이송 벨트가 히터에 대향할 때 매체 이송 벨트 내의 온도차로부터 발생하는 이미지 결함을 감소시키는 온도로 매체 이송 벨트의 온도를 감소시키도록 구성된다.
