Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a conveying roller to convey a paper, a guide member to guide the paper conveyed by the conveying roller, a pressurizing roller to pressurize the paper guided by the guide member, and a heat transferring unit faced towards the pressurizing roller, the heat transferring unit being contacted with the paper to sequentially heat a surface of the paper. Thus, the image forming apparatus prevents a front end of the paper which is conveyed in an image forming unit from being caught during the conveyance.
