PURPOSE: To rapidly discharge air including air and oil of high temperature inside a fixing device without making the air remain inside the device. CONSTITUTION: The fixing device 17 is placed on a side part on a side opposite to the paper feeding direction of a paper feeding cassette 15, so that a transferring paper can be linearly received and a space is simultaneously constituted between the device 17 and an image forming part, and a sirocco fan F is arranged above the device 17 so as to form an air flow flowing upward inside the space, so that the air including the air and the oil of high temperature inside the device 17 does not reach the image forming part, flows together with the air flow, and is discharged outside the device. |
