    摘要: A power control apparatus includes a voltage detection circuit configured to generate a voltage signal as an analog signal corresponding to a voltage value of AC power supplied from a commercial power supply to a predetermined load, and a current detection circuit configured to generate a current signal as an analog signal corresponding to a current value of the AC power. The power control apparatus further includes an A/D converter configured to convert each of the voltage signal and the current signal into a digital signal, a switch, a signal processor configured to control a switching operation of the switch based on a detection timing for the voltage value and a detection timing for the current value, and a controller configured to control supply of the AC power to the load.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus which can control to turn on/off a light emitting element depending on a sheet state on a manual sheet tray is provided. The image forming apparatus includes the manual feed tray on which the sheet is placed. The image forming apparatus is configured to be switchable between normal power mode and power saving mode. In the normal power mode, normal power is supplied. In the power saving mode, less power is consumed as compared to the power consumed in the normal power mode. The image forming apparatus includes a manual sheet feeding sensor which detects presence/absence of the sheet on the manual feed tray. The image forming apparatus includes a sheet length sensor S and a sheet length sensor L which include the light emitting element and a light receiving element to detect approximate sheet length of sheet placed on the manual feed tray in a conveying direction.

    摘要: The power source board is arranged at a lower side on the back side of the main body of the image forming apparatus. The load control board is arranged at an upper side in a vertical direction of the power source board in such a manner that the load control board does not overlap with the power source board. For a board and load at a lower side when viewed from a load control board, a connector is arranged near the lower side of the load control board. For a board and load at an upper side of the load control board, a connector is arranged near the upper side of the load control board. Similarly, for boards and loads of right and left side, connectors are arranged near the respective right and left sides of the load control board.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus comprises a waste toner container for containing toner recovered from a photosensitive drum and an intermediate transfer belt. The waste toner container has a stirring screw for conveying the waste toner in the waste toner container. The stirring screw is driven by the waste toner motor. A CPU determines whether the waste toner container is in time of replacement depending on the rotation speed or driving current of a waste toner motor. If the waste toner container is in time of replacement the CPU displays that on a display unit to provide the notification to the user.
