Adaptative substrate curing by ejecting a curing flow rate to a curing zone by: heating a heating fluid to a curing temperature; causing the heating fluid to flow along a plurality of serially connected chambers separated being each pair of chambers separated by a heating fluid restrictor, actuating on the heating fluid restrictor as to determine a restricted flow rate between adjacent chambers thereby defining a curing flow rate that passes from the chambers towards the curing zone.

An inkjet recording apparatus includes an ink jetter that jets ink and a transfer unit that has a ring-shaped intermediate transfer body. The transfer unit transfers, to a recording medium, a primary image formed on an outer circumferential surface of the intermediate transfer body with the ink that is jetted to land on the outer circumferential surface by the ink jetter. The transfer unit includes a heater that heats air in an internal space of the intermediate transfer body enclosed by an inner circumferential surface of the intermediate transfer body, and an air mover that flows the air in the internal space.
