Abstract:
In a fixing apparatus having a heater that can selectively heat a plurality of heating blocks, which are divided in the longitudinal direction of a substrate, an power supply control portion corrects the amount of current to be supplied to a plurality of heat generating elements, based on the temperatures detected by each of a plurality of temperature detecting portions, so that a difference of a temperature rising amount per unit time among the heating blocks becomes small when the fixing apparatus starts up.

Claim (Index 3):
The image heating apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the current amount correcting portion corrects the amount of current to be supplied to the plurality of heat generating elements, so that the difference of temperature rising amount per unit time is small, and the total power amount to be supplied to the plurality of heat generating elements does not exceed a predetermined power amount.
