Abstract: An image processing apparatus comprises a first detecting unit configured to detect an object, a power control unit configured to shift the image processing apparatus from a second power state to a first power state which consumes more power than the second power state when the first detecting unit detects an object, and a second detecting unit configured to detect a sheet ejected to a sheet ejecting unit. The power control unit does not shift the image processing apparatus to the first power state when the second detecting unit no longer detects the sheet before a lapse of a predetermined period of time after the first detecting unit detects an object. The power control unit shifts the image processing apparatus to the first power state when the second detecting unit detects the sheet before a lapse of the predetermined period of time after the first detecting unit detects an object.

Abstract: A printing apparatus having a first power state and a second power state, which saves more power than the first power state, includes a detection unit configured to detect a temperature around the printing apparatus, a holding unit configured to hold background temperature data indicating the temperature around the printing apparatus, a control unit configured to, based on the background temperature data held in the holding unit and temperature data detected by the detection unit, shift the printing apparatus from the second power state to the first power state, and an update unit configured to update the background temperature data held in the holding unit.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: an accepting unit to accept user operations to transition the apparatus from a standby state to a power save state; a detecting unit to detect objects around the apparatus; and a power control unit to transition the apparatus from the power save state to the standby state according to detection of an object by the detecting unit, and to transition the image forming apparatus from the standby state to the power save state according to user operations accepted at the accepting unit. The power control unit prohibits the apparatus from transitioning from the power save state to the standby state according to the detection of the object, until a user, which performed operations accepted by the accepting unit to transition the apparatus from the standby state to the power save state, thereafter ceases to be detected by the detecting unit.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a temperature sensor, a holding unit that holds background temperature data that is obtained by the temperature sensor and indicates a temperature state in a surrounding of the image forming apparatus, an obtaining unit that obtains plural pieces of data generated by performing a calibration with respect to each of plural pieces of temperature data obtained by the temperature sensor after the background temperature data is held by the holding unit by using the background temperature data held by the holding unit, and a control unit that controls return of a state of the image forming apparatus from a power saving state based on the plural pieces of data obtained by the obtaining unit.

Abstract: There is provided a method for properly placing a document on a reference position of a document positioning plate. The method for controlling an image reading apparatus for reading a document placed on a document positioning plate includes acquiring an image of an image-readable region including the document positioning plate; detecting a document to be read in a vicinity of a reference position for reading the document which is placed on the document positioning plate, and controlling a display unit to display an image of a first region of the document positioning plate in a case where the document is not detected, and controlling the display unit to display an image of a second region in the vicinity of the reference position in a magnification that is greater than a magnification for displaying the image of the first region in a case where the document is detected.

Abstract: In a case of deleting a two-dimensional code for personal information protection, job control information within line two-dimensional code is deleted together, leading to being incapable of obtaining tracking information or performing job control. A control unit deletes tracking information within the extracted additional information, that is, in a case where the tracking information includes first tracking information and second tracking information, deletes the second tracking information. The control unit changes the job control information within the extracted additional information to job prohibition. An encode unit encodes the additional information to generate a two-dimensional code. When the control unit detects that a memory receives the two-dimensional code including the updated additional information and a document image, in a memory the two-dimensional code and the document image are combined to generate a document image to which the two-dimensional code is added.
