A fixing apparatus for fixing a toner image on a recording material by heat has
a pair of rotary members having a heat generating member, and rotatable in contact
with each other, electric power supply controller for controlling electric power
supply to the heat generating member so that the temperature of at least one of
the rotary members may become a set temperature, and rotation time setting unit
for setting a time for which the electric power supply control is effected after
the shift from a warming-up operation to a fixing capable state and the pair of
rotary members are rotated continuously from rotation during the warming-up operation,
on the basis of the time of the warming-up operation.
