    • A fixing device includes an endless belt that rotates in a circumferential direction and that comes into contact with a recording medium, which is transported, at an outer peripheral surface of the endless belt, a heat generating plate that includes at least one heat generating portion and extends in an axial direction of the endless belt in such a manner that a surface of the heat generating plate is in contact with an inner peripheral surface of the endless belt, the heat generating portion being formed in such a manner as to extend in the axial direction and in such a manner as to generate heat, a heat conducting unit that is in contact with a rear surface of a portion of the heat generating plate, the portion being different from a portion of the heat generating plate on which the heat generating portion is formed in a transport direction of the recording medium, and that conducts heat generated by the heat generating portion in the axial direction, an urging unit that urges the heat conducting unit toward the heat generating plate, a pressing unit that is disposed in such a manner as to oppose the heat generating plate with the endless belt interposed between the pressing unit and the heat generating plate and that forms a nip between the pressing unit and the endless belt in such a manner as to press the recording medium, which is transported, against the endless belt, and a moving unit that causes the pressing unit to move relative to the endless belt in such a manner as to set a nip width of the nip in a heating mode in which the endless belt is heated to be smaller than the nip width of the nip in a fixing mode in which an image is fixed onto the recording medium. When the heat generating portion that is included in a region of the nip in the transport direction of the recording medium and that generates heat in the heating mode has a length L1, the heat conducting unit that is included in the region of the nip in the transport direction in the heating mode has a length S1, the heat generating portion that is included in the region of the nip in the transport direction and that generates heat in the fixing mode has a length L2, and the heat conducting unit that is included in the region of the nip in the transport direction in the fixing mode has a length S2, the following formula (1) is satisfied. L2−L1

    • A fixing device includes a hollow rotating body, a sheet-shaped heater that is disposed inside the rotating body in such a manner as to extend in a width direction perpendicular to a transport direction of a recording medium, which is transported along with rotation of the rotating body, and that heats the rotating body, and multiple thermal-conductive members that are arranged in such a manner as to be in contact with a surface of the sheet-shaped heater, the surface being opposite to a contact surface of the sheet-shaped heater that is in contact with the rotating body, with a gap formed between the multiple thermal-conductive members in at least one of the width direction and the transport direction and that conduct heat of the sheet-shaped heater in the width direction, the multiple thermal-conductive members being arranged such that a first thermal-conductive member and a second thermal-conductive member that are included in the multiple thermal-conductive members and that are adjacent to each other partially overlap each other when the thermal-conductive members in a state of being arranged in a plane are viewed in the transport direction.
