ABSTRACT:
In a standby time period in which a heating roller and a press roller are heated in a state in which a to-be-fixed medium is not fed, a fixation control section for driving and controlling a fixing device intermittently drives a motor, thereby varying a temperature of the press roller between a fixing ratio preferential mode and an energy-saving preferential mode.
