Abstract:
A glossing apparatus for glossing at least part of a toner image on a recording material includes a film, a supply roller on which the film is wound, a wind-up roller configured to wind-up the film, and a driving device configured to drive the wind-up roller to rotate. In addition, a heating device heats at least part of the toner image on the recording material through the film at a heating position between the supply roller and the wind-up roller in a heating operation, a reversing device reverses the film to the supply roller to use an unused area of the film not having been contacted to the recording material during the heating operation, and a conveying device conveys the recording material toward the heating position so that the toner image on the recording material is heated using the unused area of the film.
