Abstract

A fixing device (8) includes a fixing belt (81), a sliding member (85), a nip forming member (84), and a pressing member (82). The sliding member (85) is sheet-form and is disposed radially inward of the fixing belt (81) to be adjacent to it such that the inner circumferential surface of the rotating fixing belt (81) makes contact with, while sliding across, the sliding member (85). The nip forming member (84) is disposed radially inward of the fixing belt (81), across the sliding member (85) from the inner circumferential surface of the fixing belt (81). The nip forming member (84) has a surface-roughened portion (842) formed on the surface of contact with the sliding member (85). Reduced Peak Height (Rpk) in the surface-roughened portion (842) is 2.5 [µm] or more but less than 500 [µm].
