Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a fuser to fuse a print medium having a surface on which toner is developed, the fuser including a heating element, and a controller to control a power source to the heating element by varying a duty control cycle according to a temperature of the fuser.

Claim (Index 14):
The method of  claim 12 , wherein the generating the driving signal further comprises:\n determining a conduction duty and the duty control cycle to which the conduction duty is to be applied, based on the temperature sensed by the sensor, and generating the driving signal to the power source to the heating element based on the determined conduction duty and the determined duty control cycle.
