PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fixing device which is capable of reducing a margin width required for separation after fixing, of a front end part in a conveyance direction of a print medium so as to meet recent needs for borderless printing. SOLUTION: A fixing belt 5 is stretched between a heat roller 4 generating heat by an eddy current formed by a magnetic field generation coil 3 and a core 2, and a pressure member 6, and a pressure roller 7 is freely rotatably installed in a position wherein the pressure roller 7 is pressed to the pressure member 6 through the fixing belt 5 to form a nip part 9, and terminal parts of the nip part 9 of the pressure member 6 are rounded with a radius of about 2mm.
