Abstract:
When “operation which is not directly connected to job execution” is performed in an operation screen of a terminal device, by setting an image formation device to a power saving state, energy saving is achieved. An image formation system has: a power mode determining unit determining a shift condition of shifting to any of power states on the basis of an operation directly connected to job execution and an operation which is not directly connected to job execution, which is input to an operation screen displayed in an operation terminal; and a power state control unit shifting an MFP to any of the power states on the basis of the shift condition determined by the power mode determining unit.

Claim (Index 17):
A control method of an image formation system comprising:\n an image formation device; and a terminal device operating the image formation device, and having a plurality of power states including a normal power state of waiting in a state where a job can be executed in the image formation device and a power saving state of waiting in a state where a job cannot be executed in the image formation device and a state where power consumed is smaller than power in the normal power state, the method comprising: determining an operation which is input to an operation screen of the terminal device so as to distinguish an operation directly connected to job execution and an operation which is not directly connected to job execution; determining a power mode of determining a shift condition of shifting to a predetermined power state on the basis of an operation determined; and shifting the image formation device to any of the power states on the basis of the determined power mode.
