ABSTRACT:
A power-saving printing method that wakes up an image-forming device prior to a print operation in order to reduce an extended print time resulting from a warm-up period of the device. One embodiment of the method includes the steps of: establishing a power-saving mode when the image-forming device has not received a print code for a predetermined period of time, determining whether a wake-up control code is included in a received print code, performing a wake-up operation and establishing a print ready state when the warm-up control code is included, and performing an operation corresponding to the received print code after the wake-up operation is performed when the wake-up control code is not included.
