An image forming apparatus includes (i) a feeding portion; (ii) an image forming portion; (iii) a fixing portion, wherein the fixing portion includes: (iii-i) a rotatable member; (iii-ii) an exciting coil configured to cause the rotatable member to generate heat by electromagnetic induction heating; (iii-iii) a magnetic flux suppressing member configured to suppress a part of magnetic flux acting from the exciting coil to the rotatable member; and (iii-iv) a motor for moving the magnetic flux suppressing member depending on a width size of the sheet; and (iv) a controller configured to variably control a feeding interval of the sheet by the feeding portion so that a number of times of movement per unit time of the magnetic flux suppressing member is not more than a predetermined value when image formation of a plurality of sheets different in width size is continuously effected. |
