Abstract
An image processing apparatus including a photoconductive element, an optical unit and a fixing device such as a copier or a facsimile apparatus. A mechanism for driving a fixing roller and a pressing roller which constitute the fixing device is supported by members which are isolated from those members which support the optical unit and photoconductive element. Hence, oscillation developed by the driving mechanism which is associated with the fixing device is prevented from being transmitted to the photoconductive element and optical unit.
