An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member for bearing a toner image; a transfer portion for transferring the toner image from the image bearing member onto a recording material, the transfer portion including a transfer member for forming a transfer nip between itself and the image bearing member; and a fixing portion for fixing on the recording material the toner image transferred on the recording material, the fixing device including a fixing sleeve, a heater contacted to an inner surface of the fixing sleeve, and a pressing roller for forming a fixing nip between itself and the heater through the fixing sleeve. At least one of the fixing sleeve and the pressing roller is grounded through a first series circuit consisting of a rectifying element and a first resistance element and is grounded through a second series circuit, which is connected to the first series circuit in parallel, consisting of a capacitative element and a second resistance element.
