Described is a drying and/or fixing device for blowing at a textile material web, which is transported in its longitudinal direction in the broad-stretched condition through at least one treatment field and blown at there from blowboxes with a treatment gas. In order to assure that the treatment gas flowing off from the material web - viewed over the width of the material web - is discharged everywhere with the same suction pull, provision is made with the help of flow guide means associated with the back sides of the blowboxes that the treatment gas flowing back upon treatment of the material web can only flow off tangentially on the longitudinal edges of the treatment field corresponding with the edges of the material web.
