ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus is provided with a heating device, a conveying device, and a control device, wherein the control device has a mode for changing the set temperature from a first temperature to a second temperature higher than the first temperature when the leading edge of the recording material passes through the nip portion by a predetermined distance and the predetermined distance is equal to a value 0.3 to 2.0 times larger than the distance between the nip portion and the carrying device. Thereby, a recording-material jam is controlled and the image quality is prevented from deteriorating.
