Abstract:
An image forming apparatus forming an image by fixing a developer on a recording medium with heat includes a fixing member, a pressure member, a drive unit, a heat unit, a temperature detection unit, a control unit, and a temperature record storing unit. The fixing member is rotatably supported and heats the recording medium. The pressure member presses against the fixing member. The drive unit rotationally drives the fixing member. The heat unit heats the fixing member. The temperature detection unit detects temperature of the fixing member. The control unit controls the heat unit and the drive unit. The temperature record storing unit stores a temperature record of the temperature detection unit. The control unit controls, based on the temperature record of the temperature record storing unit, a rotation drive of the drive unit in a case of non-fixing.
