An image forming apparatus includes a housing, a door, an inlet, a primary power source, a secondary power source, a primary interlock switch, and a secondary interlock switch. The housing has an opening. The door is hinge-coupled to the housing by a hinge, and opens and closes the opening. The inlet is provided near the hinge. The secondary power source is provided farther from the inlet than the primary power source. The first interlock switch is provided on a primary electric circuit between the inlet and the primary power source, and is turned off when the door is opened. The second interlock switch is provided on a secondary electric circuit between the primary power source and the secondary power source, and is turned off when the door is opened. The primary interlock switch is disposed closer to the inlet than the secondary interlock switch.

A multifunction device includes an image reading unit, an image forming unit, a lower housing, an upper housing, an operation panel, and a contacting/separating portion. The upper housing includes: a front wall from which the operation panel protrudes frontward; and a rear end portion pivotably connected to the lower housing. The upper housing is pivotable between a seated position and an ascent position relative to the lower housing. The operation panel has a panel front end and a panel bottom surface formed with a groove recessed upward therefrom. The contacting/separating portion is provided at the panel bottom surface. The contacting/separating portion abuts on the lower housing when the upper housing is at the seated position and is separated away from the lower housing when the upper housing is at the ascent position. The groove includes a first groove part positioned between the panel front end and the contacting/separating portion.

A power supply apparatus for converting an AC voltage supplied from a power supply to a DC voltage includes a rectification circuit, a smoothing capacitor, a transformer, a voltage dividing circuit, and controller. The AC voltage is rectified by the rectification circuit and smoothed by the smoothing capacitor. The switching circuit switches between a first state in which the smoothed voltage is supplied to a first winding of the transformer and a second state in which the smoothed voltage is not supplied to the first winding. The voltage dividing circuit divides the smoothed voltage to a divided voltage by a ratio which depends on whether the AC voltage is being input to the power supply apparatus, and the divided voltage is applied to the controller. The controller controls the switching of the switching circuit according to the divided voltage applied from the voltage dividing circuit.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to control an operation of an apparatus by executing a control program, in a case where an instruction to shift to a power-off state is received, perform shift from a normal operation state to any one of a first power-off state or a second power-off state, the first power-off state being a state where the operation is stopped without restarting the control program, the second power-off state being a state where the control program is restarted and then the operation is stopped, and in a case where the shift to the first power-off state is made, set at least a part of information regarding an operation of the information processing apparatus to a value that is set in a case where the control program is restarted.

A printing apparatus including: a printing unit configured to perform printing on a printing medium; and a controller, wherein the printing apparatus is configured to perform communication with an external mediation apparatus configured to perform communication with a management server via the Internet, and wherein the controller is configured to: try to acquire time information necessary for encrypted mutual recognition communication; determine whether the time information has been successfully acquired; and not executing information transmission and reception with respect to the external mediation apparatus by the mutual recognition communication in a case where the determining does not determine that the time information has been successfully acquired, and execute the information transmission and reception with respect to the external mediation apparatus by the mutual recognition communication in a case where the determining determines that the time information has been successfully acquired.

An image forming apparatus communicates with another device and includes a processor that controls the communication. A control unit controls the apparatus to operate in one of at least a first power saving state, a second power saving state, and a normal state. In the first power saving state, the apparatus is controlled so that an image forming unit, an image reading unit, and the control unit are not activated, and a communication device is activated. In the second power saving state, the apparatus is controlled so that at least one of the image forming unit and the image reading unit are not activated, and the communication device and the control unit are activated. In the normal state, the apparatus is controlled so that at least the image forming unit, the image reading unit, the communication device, and the control unit are activated.

An electronic apparatus includes processing devices including first circuitry, a controller including second circuitry, and a memory storing a time-out time and an extension time. The first circuitry that detects an abnormality, transmits an abnormality occurrence notification, transmits a preparation completion notification, and transmits an extension request. The second circuitry transmits a restart preparation instruction to the processing devices excluding a source of the abnormality occurrence notification, waits for the preparation completion notification until an elapse of the time-out time. The second circuitry restarts the processing devices in response to the preparation completion notification from the processing devices or the elapse of the time-out time. The second circuitry extends the time-out time by the extension time in response to the extension request and restarts the processing devices in response to the preparation completion notification or the elapse of the extension time.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, when connected devices whose number is greater than a predetermined number are connected to the information processing apparatus, the predetermined number indicating the maximum number of devices simultaneously supplied with power, switch a power supply destination between the connected devices so as to obtain a state in which the number of connected devices simultaneously supplied with power is equal to or less than the predetermined number.

In a case where a connection between a communication apparatus operating in a connection setting state and a terminal apparatus has been established during a period in which an initial setting of the communication apparatus is being performed, the communication apparatus displays a predetermined notification screen on a display unit after the initial setting is completed, and, in a case where a connection between the communication apparatus operating in the connection setting state and the terminal apparatus has not been established during a period in which the initial setting is being performed, the communication apparatus does not display the predetermined notification screen on the display unit after the initial setting is completed.

An image reading apparatus includes a first posture detection unit that detects a first posture that is a posture of the apparatus main body when not in use, a second posture detection unit that detects a second posture that is a posture of the apparatus main body when in use, and a posture change detection unit that detects a change in a posture of the apparatus main body. When the first posture detection unit detects a switchover of the apparatus main body to the first posture in a first power supply mode in which power is supplied to the first posture detection unit, the second posture detection unit, and the posture change detection unit, the first power supply mode transitions to the second power supply mode in which a controller supplies power to only the posture change detection unit.
