A recording medium heating device (120, 350) that can heat and dry a continuous recording medium (10), includes multiple heating rollers(40a, 40b, 50a, 50b, 60a, 60b), including respective heaters(41a, 41b, 51a, 51b, 61 a, 61b), disposed on a conveying path of the recording medium; and a controller (80, 80b) to control the heaters of the heating rollers. In a starting period during which the recording medium heating device is started, the controller sets temperatures of the heaters to starting temperatures where a temperature of a heating roller positioned closest to an exit side of the conveying path is lower than a temperature of a heating roller positioned away from the exit side of the conveying path. |
