    Abstract: An information processing apparatus including a push switch turns off a power supply state of a main body and starts shutdown processing when a first user's operation is performed on the push switch in a normal state of the apparatus. When a second user's operation is performed on the push switch during the shutdown processing, the power supply state of the main body is switched between on and off. If the power supply state of the main body is the on state when the shutdown processing is completed, first processing for restarting the main body is performed, and if the power supply state of the main body is the off state when the shutdown processing is completed, second processing for stopping power supply to the main body is performed.

    Abstract: An information processing apparatus capable of notifying a user of a state of data transmission via short-range wireless communication. An NFC tag controller of an MFP as an information processing apparatus holds communication setting information for wireless LAN communication, and transmits the communication setting information to a mobile terminal as an external apparatus, via NFC communication by dividing the information. An interrupt signal generated by the NFC tag controller for notifying completion of transmission of a divided information item to the mobile terminal is detected, and when the number of times of detection of the interrupt signal reaches a predetermined number of times, the user is notified that the transmission of the communication setting information is completed.

    Abstract: An information processing apparatus which is capable of preventing unintended power abnormality data arising from remaining electronic charge being written into a nonvolatile memory. The nonvolatile memory stores information indicating that an output voltage of the power supply device has become equal to or lower than a threshold value. Power is controlled to be supplied from a power supply device to a processor in accordance with an operation on a power switch received in a state where no power was supplied to the processor, and power is controlled to be supplied from the power supply device to the processor in accordance with the information stored in the nonvolatile memory. Writing of the information into the nonvolatile memory is enabled in accordance with input of a predetermined signal output from the processor to which the power is supplied.

    Abstract: An image forming apparatus capable of shifting to a state where quick activation thereof can be performed in a shorter time period when a power switch is turned off. When the off operation of the power switch is detected, a first state is stored, and when the on operation of the power switch is detected next, the state of the image forming apparatus is shifted to a second state from which the image forming apparatus can return to the first state. When the state of the image forming apparatus is shifted to the second state, time starts to be measured. When the on operation of the power switch is detected in the second state, the value of the measured time is acquired. The image forming apparatus is caused to return to the stored first state depending on the value of the measured time.

    Abstract: An image processing apparatus that is capable of being instructed to power off, by a power switch or a command from an external apparatus, and is capable of executing the restart thereof under appropriate conditions. When power-off is instructed, shutdown is started. Upon completion of the shutdown, if the power switch is on, and at the same time the power-off has been instructed by the power switch of the apparatus, the restart of the apparatus is executed, whereas upon completion of the shutdown, if the power-off has been instructed by a command from the external apparatus, the restart of the apparatus is not executed.

    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a detection unit configured to detect an object and a power-supply control unit. The power-supply control unit shifts the image forming apparatus to a second power state, in response to a lapse of a predetermined time following no detection of the object, when a job has not been executed until the detection unit detects no object, after the power-supply control unit shifts the image forming apparatus to the first power state. The power-supply control unit shifts the image forming apparatus to the second power state before a lapse of the predetermined time, when a job has been executed until the detection unit detects no object, after the power-supply control unit shifts the image forming apparatus to the first power state.
