PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent high-temperature offset and fixing failure, in forming images on both sides of a recording material with liquid developer containing toner and carrier liquid. ! SOLUTION: A fixing apparatus includes: a non-contact heating device which heats a liquid developer image formed on a recording material, in a non-contact manner; and a heating/pressing apparatus which heats and presses the liquid developer image formed on the recording material. A toner image is fixed both on a first side of the recording material and a second side opposite the first side, in this order. A temperature of the recording material which has passed through the non-contact heating device and has not passed through the heating/pressing apparatus is set to be higher in fixing the second side of the recording material than in fixing the first side. A temperature to be set in the heating/pressing apparatus is lower in fixing the second side of the recording material than in fixing the first side of the recor |
