ABSTRACT:
A power source control apparatus including a capacitor; a charge control circuit for controlling a charger that charges the capacitor; a discharging circuit for discharging power charged in the capacitor to a heating member for heating. The power source control apparatus is shifted to an energy saving mode in which power supply to a part of power loads is stopped when a first condition is satisfied, and the power source control apparatus terminates the energy saving mode when a second condition is satisfied. In the apparatus, the charge control circuit is supplied with power from a power source circuit that supplies power during the energy saving mode.
