摘要：A fixing device includes a drive roller, a driven roller driven to rotate by the

drive roller, and a braking force applicator. The driven roller presses against the driveroller to form an area of contact between the drive roller and the driven roller, throughwhich a recording medium bearing a toner image passes. The braking force applicatorapplies a braking force to the driven roller to generate a shear force between the driveroller and the driven roller. The shear force acting between the drive roller and thedriven roller when the drive roller and the driven roller rotate is in a range of from 15Nto 25N.
