A fixing unit control apparatus and method are provided. The apparatus includes a feeding time detector for detecting a time when a printing medium is fed to the fixing unit; and a heat controller for controlling heat generated by the fixing unit according to the detected time. Accordingly, printing quality degraded in an early print stage can be improved. Also, by reducing a user waiting time to perform a normal printing job after an image forming device is turned on, a more convenient image forming device can be provided.
