Abstract: A method and apparatus for printing using a synchronization signal are provided. Printing processes are performed in the apparatus by determining points in time for performing the printing processes based on a synchronization signal so that it is possible to reduce a waiting time for printing.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling power of a fixing unit is provided. The apparatus includes a power supply unit supplying DC power to the fixing unit, and a power controller controlling the power supply unit to gradually increase a DC power supply time until a pre-set time is reached. Accordingly, a flicker characteristic can be reduced by gradually increasing a supply time of DC power to the fixing unit.

Abstract: A switching mode power supply (SMPS) device includes a power converting part that converts an input voltage into an output voltage according to a switching signal, and outputs a primitive switching signal for use in varying a frequency of the switching signal based on power drawn by a load receiving the output voltage; a resonant circuit that changes a duty ratio of the primitive switching signal using a variable resonant frequency in accordance with a variance of an impedance of the load; and a signal controlling part that compares a voltage of the primitive switching signal, resonated in accordance with the variable resonant frequency, with a reference voltage, and varies the frequency of the switching signal and outputs the switching signal having the varied frequency when the voltage of the primitive switching signal is maintained below the reference voltage for longer than a reference time.
