Patent ID: 11797241

Abstract:
A printing apparatus includes a connector configured to receive supply of first power from outside, a switch circuit configured to supply the first power to a regulator, a latch circuit configured to control the switch circuit, a power switch configured to hold the latch circuit in a predetermined state, a controller configured to hold the latch circuit in the predetermined state and to detect an operation of the power switch, and a storage configured to store setting information. In response to supply of the first power to the connector, the latch circuit is configured to, when supplied with the first power and when the predetermined state is a first state, switch on the switch circuit to supply the first power to the regulator. The regulator is configured to generate second power based on the supplied first power and to supply the second power to the controller and the storage. The controller is configured to, when the setting information in the storage is valid, maintain the latch circuit in the first state without performing detection of the operation of the power switch.
