    Abstract: An image printer uses a common filter to remove harmonic waves generated at a common operating frequency band of a fixing module to fix toner onto a print medium using high frequency power generated from a high frequency generator and a switch mode power supply module to supply operating power to the high frequency generator. The image printer includes a fixing module to fix toner to a print medium using high frequency power generated from a high frequency generator, a switch mode power supply module to supply operating power to the high frequency generator, and a band pass filter to filter harmonic waves of a common operating frequency band of the fixing module and the switch mode power supply module. The fixing module rectifies an input AC current supplied through the band pass filter to generate a high frequency current and fixes the toner to the print medium by generating heat using the generated high frequency current.
