Abstract
When a toner image is continuously formed on a plurality of recording materials, and the toner image is fixed onto the recording materials, a conveyance control portion changes throughput, which is the number of recording materials to be conveyed per unit time, from first throughput to second throughput, which is slower than the first throughput, when a second detection temperature detected by a second temperature detecting portion that detects a temperature at an end of a heating member in a longitudinal direction of the heating member perpendicular to a conveyance direction of the recording materials exceeds a first threshold, and changes the throughput from the second throughput to third throughput, which is slower than the second throughput, when the second detection temperature exceeds a second threshold, which is higher than the first threshold, after the recording material conveyed at the second throughput reaches the nip.
