Abstract
An image forming apparatus and a control method are provided. The image forming apparatus includes an input which receives an input of a job execute command, a job performer which performs a job according to the inputted job execute command, and a controller which adjusts a standby time, when the inputted job execute command is added during operation in the normal mode, the standby time being time interval between completion of the job and entrance into power-save mode. The controller changes the operational mode of the image forming apparatus to the power-save mode according to the adjusted standby time.
Claims20
A control method of an image forming apparatus having a normal mode and a power-save mode, the control method comprising:
- inputting a job execute command;
- performing a job according to the inputted job execute command;
- adjusting a standby time, when the inputted job execute command is added during operation in the normal mode, the standby time being time interval between completion of the job and entrance into power-save mode;
- and
- changing the operational mode of the image forming apparatus to the power-save mode according to the adjusted standby time.
An image forming apparatus having a normal mode and a power-save mode, the image forming apparatus comprising:
- an input which receives an input of a job execute command;
- a job performer which performs a job according to the inputted job execute command;
- and
- a controller which adjusts a standby time, when the inputted job execute command is added during operation in the normal mode, the standby time being time interval between completion of the job and entrance into power-save mode, wherein
- the controller changes the operational mode of the image forming apparatus to the power-save mode according to the adjusted standby time.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium comprising a program to implement a control method of an image forming apparatus having a normal mode and a power-save mode, the control method comprising:
- inputting a job execute command;
- performing a job according to the inputted job execute command;
- adjusting a standby time, when the inputted job execute command is added during operation in the normal mode, the standby time being time interval between completion of the job and entrance into power-save mode;
- and
- changing the operational mode of the image forming apparatus to the power-save mode according to the adjusted standby time.
A control method of an image forming apparatus having a normal mode and a power-save mode, the control method comprising:
- receiving at least one job execute command;
- performing at least one job execute command;
- adjusting the standby time, wherein standby time being time interval between completion of the job and entrance into power-save mode;
- changing the operational mode of the image forming apparatus to the power-save mode according to the adjusted standby time;
- wherein the adjusting of the standby time occurs when the total number of jobs executed exceed a predetermined value and/or when the combined total number of pages printed between the jobs executed exceed a predetermined value.
