IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

To provide an image forming apparatus that can perform normal shut-down processing even if power supply is abruptly cut off.SOLUTION: An image forming apparatus comprises: a first power cord 60 that supplies first power; a second power cord 61 that supplies second power; a first load 81 to which any one of the first power and the second power can be supplied; a control unit 70 that controls the operation of the load 81; a first switching unit 73 that is switched to a first state of supplying the first power to the control unit 70 and a second state of supplying the second power to the control unit 70; and a second switching unit 74 that is switched to a third state of supplying the first power to the first load 81 and a fourth state of supplying the second power to the first load 81. When the control unit 70 detects that supply of the first power is cut off, it stops the operation of the first load 81, switches the first switching unit 73 to the second state, and switches the second switching unit 74 to the fourth state.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】突発的な電力供給の遮断であっても正常なシャットダウン処理を行うことができる画像形成装置を提供する。【解決手段】画像形成装置は、第１電力を供給する第１電源コード６０と、第２電力を供給する第２電源コード６１と、第１電力と第２電力のいずれもが供給可能である第１負荷８１と、第１負荷８１の動作を制御する制御部７０と、第１電力を制御部７０に供給する第１状態と第２電力を制御部７０に供給する第２状態とに切り替えられる第１切替部７３と、第１電力を第１負荷８１に供給する第３状態と第２電力を第１負荷８１に供給する第４状態とに切り替えられる第２切替部７４と、を備える。制御部７０は、第１電力の供給が途絶えたことを検知すると、第１負荷８１の動作を停止し、第１切替部７３を第２状態に切り替え、第２切替部７４を第４状態に切り替える。【選択図】図２
