Abstract: A method for thermosetting printed fabrics, comprising: providing a heated roller rotatable about a rotation axis and having a cylindrical outer surface, advancing a printed fabric in contact with the cylindrical outer surface of the heated roller, wherein the heated roller is rotated with a peripheral speed different from the speed of the fabric.

Abstract: A heated roller, in particular for a textile printer, comprising: a pair of stationary supports, an elongated tubular element located between said stationary supports and rotatably carried by said stationary supports about a longitudinal axis, a stationary infrared lamp extending inside said tubular element and having opposite ends supported by said stationary supports, a lamp support device extending between said stationary supports inside said tubular element and supporting the infrared lamp between said stationary supports, and an elastic device which applies an elastic tension to said lamp support device between said stationary supports in the direction of said longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A unit for thermosetting printed fabrics, comprising: a heated roller rotating about a rotation axis and having a cylindrical outer surface, at least one fabric guiding element having an inner wall facing the cylindrical outer surface of the heated roller and defining a gap with the cylindrical outer surface of the heated roller, for passing the fabric wherein said fabric guiding element is carried by an adjusting device rotatable about said rotation axis to adjust the angular position of said guiding element about said rotation axis.
