Abstract
A fusing device to prevent overheating of a heating member includes a heating member having a heat emitting part disposed to transfer heat to recording media, an induction coil to create a magnetic field acting upon the heat emitting part, at least one magnetic body disposed around the induction coil, and an inductor cover disposed between the heating member and the magnetic body. The heating member includes a first region corresponding to a size of the recording media passing through the heating member and a second region outside the first region. The inductor cover includes at least one opening formed to correspond to the second region of the heating member such that heat generated from the heating member is directly radiated to the magnetic body.
