Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately suppress a rush current generated in a heat source.SOLUTION: An image forming apparatus forming an image on a recording medium comprises: a fixing part that includes a heat source and fixes the image formed on the recording medium by using heat supplied from the heat source; a first driving part that drives the heat source; a second driving part that drives the heat source to be controlled differently from the first driving part; and a switching control part that causes one of the first driving part and the second driving part to drive the heat source.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】熱源に発生する突入電流をより適切に抑制すること。【解決手段】記録媒体上に画像を形成する画像形成装置は、熱源を有し、該熱源により供給される熱を利用して、前記記録媒体上に形成された画像を定着させる定着部と、前記熱源を駆動する第１の駆動部と、前記第１の駆動部とは異なる制御内容で前記熱源を駆動する第２の駆動部と、前記第１の駆動部、及び前記第２の駆動部のうちの一方に前記熱源を駆動させる切替制御部と、を備えている。【選択図】図２
