Abstract:
An image forming device includes: a fixing unit that fixes an image formed on a recording medium; a heating unit that heats a recording medium that has been subjected to a fixing process by the fixing unit; and a controller that sets a glossiness of an image on a recording medium, wherein the controller controls a heating amount with the heating unit depending on the set glossiness.

Claim (Index 2):
The image forming device according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the controller sets a heating amount of the heating unit corresponding to the glossiness according to formula (1) representing a relationship between the glossiness and a heating temperature and time with the heating unit,\n Y=a \u00d7Log  S+b \u2003\u2003(1) \n Y represents the glossiness, a and b represent given constants, S is represented according to the following formula (2)\n S =( T 1+ T 2\u22122\u00d7 Tm )\u00d7( t 2\u2212 t 1)\u00d7\u00bd+( T 2\u2212 Tm )\u00d7( t 3\u2212 t 2)\u00d7\u00bd\u2003\u2003(2), \n T 1  represents a temperature of a recording medium introduced into the heating unit, T 2  represents a temperature of a recording medium discharged from the heating unit, Tm represents a temperature at which a storage elastic modulus of a toner constituting the image is 10 6  Pa, t 1  represents time from completion of fixing the image in the fixing unit to introduction of the recording medium into the heating unit, t 2  represents time from completion of fixing the image in the fixing unit to discharge of the recording medium from the heating unit, and t 3  represents time from completion of fixing the image in the fixing unit to a time point when a temperature of the toner is lowered to Tm.
