Abstract
The imaging apparatus which is provided with the image glossing device of the invention has a means for inputting or detecting a type of a receiver sheet. Transferring speed of the receiver sheet through a image glossing device after development process and temperature to which the receiver sheet is to be heated in the image glossing device are determined corresponding to the type of receiver sheet. For a receiver sheet which requires less quantity of heat for glossing, processing time can be reduced by setting relatively high heating temperature and high processing speed. For a receiver sheet which requires much quantity of heat for glossing, satisfactory glossing process can be performed without causing offset and other defects by setting relatively low heating temperature and low processing speed.
