Abstract: A carpet printing method is disclosed, and an apparatus for carrying out the method. The method includes the steps of supporting a piece of fabric on a perforate belt, generating a foam adjacent to the fabric and directing the foam through the belt to treat the fabric. The apparatus includes a pan having pipes for admitting dye and air into the pan to generate a foam. A belt is disposed across the open top of the pan, the belt carrying the fabric. The air both foams the liquid and provides pressure within the pan to urge the foam through the belt and into the fabric.
