The image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit, a fixing part and a controller controlling power to be supplied to the heating unit so as to keep the temperature of the heating unit at a control target temperature, wherein when the fixing process is ended, in the standby-mode, the supply of power to the heating unit is started to keep the temperature of the heating unit at the control target temperature, and a start timing of the supply of power to the heating unit is set to a timing when the temperature of the heating unit is lowered to a predetermined temperature lower than the control target temperature. By the virtue of the present invention, it is possible to reduce the power consumption of the image forming apparatus in the standby-mode.
