Abstract
A fixing film is formed by stacking a heating layer, an electrical conducting layer, and an insulation layer interposed between the heating layer and the electrical conducting layer. A current supplied from a secondary coil flows through stacked layers formed by the secondary coil, the heating layer, an electrical conducting member, and the electrical conducting layer. The electrical conducting member and electrical conducting layer function as a current return path.
