Zusammenfassung: | To provide an image formation apparatus which can efficiently manage a power-saving operation pattern by combining learning and manual setting.SOLUTION: A power-saving setting unit returns an image formation apparatus to the normal operation state when there is the operation during the power-saving operation, and shifts the image formation apparatus to the power-saving operation state when there is no operation during a prescribed shifting period in the normal operation state. The power-saving setting unit totalizes the operation situation in each time zone for each day of the week, decides the shifting time in each time zone for each day on the basis of the totalized operation situation, and receives setting of the shifting time by a user with respect to the specific time zone of the specific day. The power-saving operation pattern of the power-saving setting part is set via a power-saving setting screen. The power-saving setting screen includes a mode selection radio button 354 for selecting the operation mode, and a button 660 for setting the operation on the specific day even in such a state that the automatic mode is selected in the mode selection radio button 354.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8
【課題】学習と手動設定とを組合せて省エネ動作パターンを効率的に管理できる画像形成装置を提供する。【解決手段】省エネ設定部は、省エネ動作中に操作があると画像形成装置を通常動作状態に復帰させ、通常動作状態で所定の移行時間の間操作がないと画像形成装置を省エネ動作状態に移行させる。省エネ設定部はさらに、曜日別の各時間帯の稼動状況を集計し、集計した稼動状況に基づき曜日別の各時間帯における移行時間を決定するとともに、特定日の特定の時間帯に対してユーザによる移行時間の設定を受付ける。省エネ設定部の省エネ動作パターンは省エネルギー設定画面を介して設定される。省エネルギー設定画面は、動作モードを選択するためのモード選択ラジオボタン354、及びモード選択ラジオボタン354にてオートモードが選択された状態でも、特定日における動作の設定を行なうことが可能なボタン660を含む。【選択図】図8 |
