Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a position deviation detection unit configured to detect a position deviation of a recording medium in a width direction of the recording medium in a current job on a basis of (a) an amount of change over time in a difference between temperature detected by a first temperature detection element and temperature detected by a second temperature detection element and (b) information on temperature distribution on a fixing unit that occurred before the current job.

Claim (Index 9):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 8 ,\n wherein the heater includes a first heat generator configured to generate a larger amount of heat at an area where the recording medium of relatively small size passes and a second heat generator whose heat distribution is different from heat distribution of the first heat generator, and wherein, the smaller the ratio of power supplied to the second heat generator to power supplied to the first heat generator, the smaller the threshold.
