ABSTRACT:
A fixing unit includes an inductor which heats a heating roller by electromagnetic induction, the heating roller serving as a heat source which fixes toner supplied to a paper sheet, and a heat control circuit which supplies radio-frequency power to the inductor. Particularly, the heat control circuit is set such that the radio-frequency power is changed in a stepwise manner to increase and reduce the temperature of the heating roller.
