Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a fixing section that fixes an image formed on a recording medium and a drive section that drives the fixing section in rotation. The drive section is stopped or rotated at a lower speed for reducing noise after fixing an image on the recording medium while preventing the temperature of a fixing roller from increasing.
