Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a fixing unit and an apparatus main body. The fixing unit fixes a toner image on a recording medium. To the apparatus main body, the fixing unit is attached. The apparatus main body includes a holding part which has an opening and an elastically deformable contact part. The opening is arranged at an attachment position of the fixing unit. The contact part protrudes from an edge of the opening to an attachment direction of the fixing unit and is bent so as to narrow the opening. The fixing unit includes a held part protruding at a position corresponding to the holding part, and the held part enters the opening while pressing the contact part so that the held part fits into the opening.
