ABSTRACT:
An apparatus operable to enter a power saving mode in which a main portion of the apparatus is powered off includes an alarm unit configured to produce an alarm upon detection that the data waiting for processing is present, a power saving mode transition check unit configured to check whether transition conditions for transition to the power saving mode are satisfied, a first control unit configured to cause the apparatus to enter the power saving mode without having the alarm unit powered on upon the transition conditions being satisfied and upon detection that the data waiting for processing is absent, and a second control unit configured to check a predetermined condition upon the transition conditions being satisfied and upon detection that the data waiting for processing is present, and configured to cause the apparatus to enter the power saving mode upon finding that the predetermined condition is satisfied.
