ABSTRACT:
A fixing device for heating and fixing an unfixed image such as a toner image on an image supporting medium such as paper, in which the wait time is greatly shortened. The fixing device has a heating-fixing roller and a pressing roller. The pressing roller has a cellulars layer formed chiefly of HTV silicone rubber and having a number of isolated cells containing gases therein, and a relatively thin silicone rubber layer on the cellulars layer. The heating-fixing roller basically includes a thin-walled metal roller having substantially the same diameter as the pressing roller. Preferably, the heating-fixing roller is provided on the side which contacts the toner image.
