<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fixing device, an image forming apparatus, and a temperature control method with which productivity can be improved.SOLUTION: A fixing device includes: a capacitor 130 that stores power and supplies the stored power; a fixing unit 110 that performs heating using at least one of a first power, which is a power supplied from the capacitor 130 and a second power, which is a power supplied from a source other than the capacitor 130, and fixes an image formed on a recording medium to the recording medium; a cooling unit 120 that cools the fixing unit 110 by using the first power; a temperature detection unit 111 that detects the temperature of the fixing unit 110; and a control unit 180 that controls as to whether to supply the first power from the capacitor 130 to the fixing unit 110 or supply the first power from the capacitor 130 to the cooling unit 120 in response to the detected temperature and a mode to form an image on the recording medium.</p> |
