Abstract:
A heating roller performs electromagnetic induction heating, and includes a first exciting coil that heats the heating roller, a first degaussing coil that decreases magnetic fields of the first exciting coil, and a first axial direction core that guides magnetic fluxes, to make up a magnetic circuit between the first axial direction core and the heating roller. The width of a heat zone is controlled in agreement with a sheet feeding area. Thus, the capability to control a temperature increase in a non-sheet-feeding area of the heating roller is enhanced. Power can be saved during continual feeding of small recording sheets.
