<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it hard to cause a uneven gloss even in forming images on both sides of a recording medium. <P>SOLUTION: Toner images are formed on one or both sides of a sheet-like recording medium P. The recording medium P is passed through a pressure contact part N between a rotated fixing member 61 and a pressure member rotated in pressure contact with the fixing member 61. Thus, the toner images are fixed to the recording medium. In this case, when the toner images T1 and T2 are formed on both sides P1 and P2 of the recording medium P, the margins of the leading ends of the recording medium P with the toner images T1 and T1 thereon entering the pressure contact part N in the direction of the movement of the recording medium are set so that the margin S2 which is in contact with the pressure member 62 is longer than the margin S1 which is in contact with the fixing member 61. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
