Abstract:
A fixing device includes a rotatable fixing member configured to heat and fix, onto a recording material, a toner image formed on the recording material, a restriction member configured to restrict movement of the rotatable fixing member in a generatrix direction of the rotatable fixing member, and a capture member configured to capture a component vaporized by heat. The capture member is arranged to face a curved surface portion of the rotatable fixing member and is positioned by the restriction member.
