Patent ID: 8755070

Claim:
A printing apparatus comprising: an input unit configured to input a print job and a non-print job; a print unit configured to perform print processing onto a print medium based on the print job input by the input unit, wherein the print unit includes a fixing unit configured to thermally fix a developer on the print medium; a receiving unit configured to receive a request for shutting off power supply of the printing apparatus; a judgment unit configured to judge whether a temperature of the fixing unit falls below a predetermined temperature or not, after the request is received by the receiving unit; an execution unit configured to execute shutting off power supply of the printing apparatus, in a case that the judgment unit judges that the temperature of the fixing unit falls below the predetermined temperature; wherein the input unit can input the print job and the non-print job, in a period between when the request is received by the receiving unit and when the judgment unit judges that the temperature of the fixing unit falls below the predetermined temperature, and a control unit configured to perform control, in a case that a job before execution exists in the period, if the job before execution is the print job, to prevent the print processing based on the print job from being executed, and on the other hand, if the job before execution is the non-print job, to permit execution of processing based on the non-print job.
