Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a receiving unit that receives, from an external device via a communication line, a signal requesting provision of various types of services; a processing unit that when the receiving unit receives the signal in a setting period of a power saving state where power consumption is lower than in a running state, returns to the running state to process the signal and provide a service corresponding to the signal; and a memory that stores a content of the service provided by the processing unit and a content of a request requested by the signal, the content of the service and the content of the request being correlated respectively, wherein when the request received by the receiving unit in the setting period of the power saving state matches the content of the request stored in the memory, the processing unit reads the content of the service correlated with the content of the request from the memory and provides the service corresponding to the content of the service t

Abstract: Attributes of an original (image density and discrimination between a color image and a black-and-white image) stopped on a platen glass is read by a reading unit in which light is irradiated upward from a lamp and reflection light is finally read by an image sensor. Next, while carriages of the reading unit are moved rightward, an image of the original is read by the reading unit. After completion of the reading operation, the carriages are held at a position near an image reading end position. Then, the readout original is ejected from above the platen glass, and the next original is transported by an automatic document feeder so as to be stopped on the platen glass. Thereafter, while the carriages are moved leftward, attributes of the next original stopped on the platen glass are read.
