摘要:
The invention provides a fixing method including conveying a recording medium on which a toner image has been formed using a fixing belt, in a state in which the fixing belt contacts with a surface of the recording medium on which the toner image is formed, at least from a fixing portion in which the toner image is fixed by heating and pressing the recording medium to a cooling portion in which the recording medium after fixing is cooled, wherein the ten-point average roughness (Rz) of a surface of the fixing belt contacting with the recording medium is 0.7 μm or less or the filtered maximum waviness in every convex portion present on a surface of the fixing belt contacting with the recording medium is 50 μm or less. The invention also provides a fixing apparatus using the method and an image forming apparatus using the method.

A surface treatment device includes a belt member having a surface layer in which plural kinds of rubbers having a different hardness mixedly exist. In the device, a press/heat unit presses a recording medium with a toner image formed against the belt member such that the toner image contacts with the surface layer, and heats the recording medium to melt at least a surface of the toner image.

A fixing device comprises: a fixing belt that has a surface release layer of a fluorinated-resin tube, the fixing belt being laid across by a fixing roller and a tension roller; a pressurizing member that presses the fixing roller through the fixing belt; and a release member that presses the fixing belt on the pressurizing member, in a substantial vicinity of a downstream of a pressure contact site of between the fixing roller and the pressurizing member, and strips a recording material from the fixing belt, the fixing device fixing a toner image on the recording material by heat.
