FUSING UNIT, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS EMPLOYING THE FUSING UNIT

摘要

PURPOSE: A fixing unit, a control method thereof, and an image forming apparatus adopting the same are provided, which lower an applied pressure power in an initial driving of anchorage, increase the pressure according to time change, and improve a driving torque of the drive motor. CONSTITUTION: A fusing unit(30) is rotated by a drive motor(20). The fusing unit settles down image by heating and pressurizing of a printing medium(100). Anchorage settles down Image is transferred into the print media. A pressure controller(40) varies the pressure applied to the fusing unit. In order that pressure is varied according to a drive torque of the drive motor, a control unit(60) controls the pressurization control part.
