Abstract:
A power management apparatus attached to a first image forming apparatus configured to switch a power supply switch to an OFF state, includes an energy storage device configured to supply electric power to the apparatus, a communication interface configured to receive a state of a second image forming apparatus from a communication device attached to the second image forming apparatus, and a mechanical switch configured to physically displace a power supply switch of the first image forming apparatus and turn a power supply of the first image forming apparatus ON and OFF based on the state of the second image forming apparatus.

Claim (Index 7):
An apparatus configured to switch the power supply state thereof between an ON state and an OFF state depending on power supply states of additional apparatuses and the illumination conditions at the location of the additional apparatuses, comprising:\n an energy storage; a power supply section including a power supply switch settable in a power supply ON condition and a power supply OFF condition; a communication interface configured to receive power supply state and illumination state information concerning the additional apparatuses; a controller; and a mechanical switch configured to physically interface with the power supply switch and thereby switch the power supply of the apparatus to the OFF state under the control of the controller based on the power supply state and illumination state information concerning the additional apparatuses.
