A fixing device includes: a fixing member that touches an unfixed toner image formed on a sheet; a pressing member that causes the sheet to come in pressure contact with the fixing member; a pressing belt that is interposed between the fixing member and pressing member to rotate; a lubricant coating member that coats lubricant on an inner surface of the pressing belt; a pair of first blade members each that touches, through a counter method, an inner surface of both edge portions of the pressing belt in a width direction perpendicular to a rotating direction of the pressing belt, to scrape the lubricant; and a first lubricant guide member arranged from a tip of the first blade members to an inner side, receives the scraped lubricant, and guides the lubricant to the inner side to return to the inner surface of the pressing belt. |
