Original Abstract Submitted
A fixing device includes a fixing member to be used in fixing an image on a recording medium; a rotatable member pressed against the fixing member while being allowed to rotate, the rotatable member cooperating with the fixing member in such a manner as to form a pressurization part where the recording medium is to be pressurized; a rotating component configured to rotate the rotatable member by inputting a driving force to a position apart from an axis of the rotatable member; and an urging component configured to urge at least one end of the rotatable member in such a manner as to move the one end in an approaching direction or a retracting direction relative to the fixing member.
