PURPOSE:To carrying out excellent fixing works with a less quantity of energy consumption, by fixing a picture which is directly formed or transferred to a recording material with a developing agent by means of pressure impression and light irradiation. CONSTITUTION:A picture which is directly formed on or transferred to a recording material with a developing agent is fixed by means of pressure impression and light irradiation. When a toner picture which is directly formed or transferred to the recording material, such as paper is pressed, thereafter, subjected to the irradiation of optical energy preferably with 170-250kg/cm<2> and 0.5-1.0J/cm<2> energy, the picture can have an extremely excellent fixing property. In the case of the pressure fixing, two or three metallic rolls are usually used and the high pressure of 150-300kg/cm<2> is impressed upon the toner. Therefore, fixing works can be carried out with the less energy consumption and, as a result, high-speed fixing can be realized.
