ABSTRACT:
A serial type electrophotography printer includes a transport mechanism for transporting a recording sheet in a transport direction, a carriage including a process part and a fixing unit, where the process part includes an image bearing member rotatable about a rotary axis parallel to the transport direction of the recording sheet and a toner developing a latent image formed by charging the image bearing member, the fixing unit includes a rotatable fixing member and a heater for heating the fixing member, and the fixing member fixes a developed image which is transferred onto the recording sheet from the image bearing member, a driving mechanism for rotating the image bearing member and the fixing member when the carriage is moved to carry out developing, transfer and fixing processes with respect to the recording sheet, and for rotating at least one of the image bearing member and the fixing member during a predetermined time other than the time when the carriage is moved to carry out the developing, transfer and fixing processes, a transfer unit confronting the carriage via the recording sheet in a main scan direction of the carriage for transferring the developed image on the image bearing member onto the recording sheet, and a moving mechanism for moving the carriage in the main scan direction which is perpendicular to the transport direction of the recording sheet.
