Abstract

Information on a temperature of a heat generation member at a position which is in the neighborhood of an end portion of a conveyance area of a material, to be heated, having a maximum size and in the neighborhood of a non-conveyance area of a material, to be heated, having a size smaller than the maximum size is detected by temperature information detector, and a changer lowers a target temperature of the heat generation member depending on a detection result of the temperature information detector. Thereafter, when the detection result of the temperature information detector reaches a predetermined temperature, a magnetic flux adjusting member is started to be moved by a moving device.
