An image forming method comprising forming a color image on a support, which color image consists of a plurality of color toners each having a melting point or a softening point; then heating the color image upon application of pressure at a first temperature while the color image contacts a surface of a fixing member, which first temperature is not lower than the melting points or softening points of the plurality of color toners; then cooling the color image to a second temperature lower than the melting points or softening points while the color image contacts the surface of the fixing member; and then separating the color image from the fixing member, wherein the surface of the fixing member has a ten-point mean roughness not greater than 20 mum.
