  • Patent number: 11409209
    Abstract: An example operation method of an image forming apparatus includes obtaining, from a sensor, an output signal corresponding to a degree of shrinkage of a transporting member that transports a developing agent in a toner cartridge, as the transporting member rotates, determining a state of the toner cartridge based on a characteristic of the output signal, and executing a recovery mode that increases a driving force delivered to the transporting member when determining that the state of the toner cartridge is an abnormal state in which toner is not normally supplied to a developing device.

  • Patent number: 9448720
    Abstract: Disclosed are a touch-input recognizable mobile terminal, and a method for controlling the same. The mobile terminal, which is in a locked state for restricting reception of a user's control command, includes: a body; a sensing unit configured to sense a posture of the body; a display unit configured to output a lock screen in the locked state; and a controller configured to convert the locked state into a released state, if a touch for releasing the locked state is applied to the display unit, wherein the controller performs one or more controls related to at least one of the locked state and the released state, according to a posture of the body sensed upon input of the touch.
