PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain high-speed printing by preventing the change of a static charge characteristic or the like caused of the accumulation of heat on the inside of a device and also surely transferring and fixing a toner image on a toner image carrying feeding body on a recording material by the small amount of power consumption at an image recorder transferring and simultaneously fixing the toner image on the recording material. SOLUTION: An intermediate transfer body 5 where the toner image is primarily transferred is disposed at a position opposed to a photoreceptor drum 1, and a pressure roller 11 by which the toner image is brought into press-contact with the recording material is provided on the downstream side of the toner image transferred in a feeding direction. An electromagnetic induction heating apparatus 12 melting the toner image on the intermediate transfer body is provided on the upstream side of a secondary transferring part Y by which the pressure roller 11 is brought into press-contact. The intermediate transfer body 5 is provided with an electrically conductive layer on the inside, and the electromagnetic induction heating apparatus generates a fluctuating magnetic field, so that the conductive layer is heated by an eddy current. Toner is heated to the temperature equal to or higher than the softening point temperature by the heat, and is brought into press-contact with the recording material, so that it is instantly transferred and is cooled while being passed through the secondary transferring part Y.
