Abstract
In accordance with one embodiment, a fixing device comprises an induction current generating section, a heating section and an auxiliary heating section. The induction current generating section generates induction current. The heating section generates heat through the induction current. The auxiliary heating section increases the calorific value of the heating section based on the induction current as it is moved closer to the heating section, but does not generate heat itself through the induction current.
