Abstract:
An image forming apparatus and a control method of an image forming apparatus which offers high convenience are described. An image forming section forms a toner image in a print medium, and fixes the toner image by a heated fixing device. A power circuit supplies power to the image forming section to heat the fixing device. A communication interface receives a facsimile call signal and a facsimile image signal. A system controller controls the image forming section and the power circuit such that, when the facsimile call signal and the facsimile image signal are received, the image forming section and the power circuit are controlled to form an image by the image forming section on the basis of the facsimile image signal and, when the facsimile call signal is received and the facsimile image signal is not received, the power circuit supplies power to the image forming section to heat the fixing device.

Claim (Index 3):
The apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein\n when the facsimile call signal is received and the facsimile image signal is not received in a state where the power supply from the power circuit to the image forming section is stopped, the system controller is configured to control the power circuit to supply power to the image forming section, and heat the fixing device.
