Abstract: A developer image is formed by selectively supplying a developer based on a potential distribution corresponding to image information, the formed developer image is electrostatically attracted and transferred to a sheet material, the developer image is fixed to the sheet material by applying heat and pressure to the developer image transferred to the sheet material and the sheet material, and a drive force in a forward direction applied to the sheet material is cut off in a case where the sheet material is not ejected in a specified time, and then a drive force in a direction opposite to that of the drive force in the forward direction is applied for a specified time, and therefore, it is possible to prevent a sheet jammed in a fuser unit from being concealed in the fuser unit.

Abstract: A fixing device has a separation claw whose end portion is installed touchably with an outer periphery surface of a press roller. The separation claw makes the end portion make contact with the outer peripheral surface of the press roller, thereby separates a paper from the press roller. A rotation central shaft of the separation claw is rotatably supported by a support member and when force for pressing the end portion of the separation claw inside the press roller is given, the rotation central shaft of the separation claw is led so that the end portion of the separation claw is shifted in the direction of separating from the press roller.
