Zusammenfassung: | An image heating apparatus includes: (i) an endless belt; (ii) a driving member; (iii) a heater including: (iii-i) a substrate; (iii-ii) a resistor; (iii-iii) a first electroconductive portion electrically connected to the resistor in a widthwise end side; and (iii-iv) a second electroconductive portion electrically connected to the resistor in another widthwise end side; and (iv) a selector for selecting one of first and second electric energy supply paths. The first electric energy supply path is electrically connected to a region of the first electroconductive portion at a longitudinal central portion of the resistor and to a region of the second electroconductive portion in at the longitudinal central portion. The second electric energy supply path is electrically connected to a region of the first electroconductive portion at a longitudinal end portion of the resistor and to a region of the second electroconductive portion at another longitudinal end portion. |
