  • Apparatus and method for shutting-down a reproduction apparatus in a prescribed manner
    Patent number: 6192206
    Abstract: A reproduction apparatus is provided with a timer for starting a shutdown procedure at a time programmable by an operator. If the external power supply is switched off thereafter, as is the case if the apparatus is connected to an external timer, the apparatus will be switched off in a state suitable for the purpose, so that no data is lost and a hard disk present in the apparatus will not be damaged. A message is generated relating to the time still available until switch-off time. A print job is inhibited depending on the time still available.
