Abstract

In a device for fixing toner images on a recording medium in a printer or copier, fixing takes place with aid of a heat radiation source comprising ignition elements arranged in a heating module. Since the ignition elements are small, radiation areas of differing geometric extension can be created by their arrangement in the heating module.
