An image fixation apparatus, comprising: a supporting surface that is a part of a path along which a recording target medium is transported from an upstream side to a downstream side, the supporting surface being able to support the recording target medium; and an image fixation section that is provided opposite the supporting surface and performs image fixation processing when the recording target medium is supported by the supporting surface after recording of an image on the recording target medium at a position upstream of the supporting surface, the image fixation processing being processing of fixing the image on the recording target medium, wherein, when measured in a direction in which the supporting surface and the image fixation section are provided opposite to each other, the supporting surface is relatively more distant from the image fixation section than a region that is located upstream of the supporting surface in the path, wherein the supporting surface includes a distance-increasing inclined surface that slopes in such a way as to go away from the image fixation section so that a distance measured from the image fixation section in the direction in which the supporting surface and the image fixation section are provided opposite to each other will increase gradually toward the downstream side of the path, characterized in that the supporting surface includes a distance-decreasing inclined surface that slopes in such a way as to come closer to the image fixation section so that a distance measured from the image fixation section in the direction in which the supporting surface and the image fixation section are provided opposite to each other will decrease gradually toward the downstream side of the path along which the recording target medium is transported; and the distance-decreasing inclined surface is located downstream of the distance-increasing inclined surface in the path. a supporting surface that is a part of a path along which a recording target medium is transported from an upstream side to a downstream side, the supporting surface being able to support the recording target medium; and an image fixation section that is provided opposite the supporting surface and performs image fixation processing when the recording target medium is supported by the supporting surface after recording of an image on the recording target medium at a position upstream of the supporting surface, the image fixation processing being processing of fixing the image on the recording target medium, wherein, when measured in a direction in which the supporting surface and the image fixation section are provided opposite to each other, the supporting surface is relatively more distant from the image fixation section than a region that is located upstream of the supporting surface in the path, wherein the supporting surface includes a distance-increasing inclined surface that slopes in such a way as to go away from the image fixation section so that a distance measured from the image fixation section in the direction in which the supporting surface and the image fixation section are provided opposite to each other will increase gradually toward the downstream side of the path, characterized in that the supporting surface includes a distance-decreasing inclined surface that slopes in such a way as to come closer to the image fixation section so that a distance measured from the image fixation section in the direction in which the supporting surface and the image fixation section are provided opposite to each other will decrease gradually toward the downstream side of the path along which the recording target medium is transported; and the distance-decreasing inclined surface is located downstream of the distance-increasing inclined surface in the path.
