| Zusammenfassung: | An apparatus includes a control unit configured to switch a power state among a first power state, a second power state, and a third power state, the first power state being a state where a device driver is loaded and a device is usable, the second power state being a state where the device driver is unloaded and the device is unusable, the third power state being a state where the device driver is unloaded and the device is unusable, power consumption in the third power state being less than power consumption in the second power state. Based on reception of a predetermined signal in a case where the information processing apparatus is in the third power state, the control unit causes the power state to transition from the third power state to the second power state. |
