An image forming apparatus 100 includes first and second memories 115,125, and a main controller 110 and a sub-controller 120. The main controller 110 performs a control operation using the first memory 115 in a normal mode state, the sub-controller 120 is mounted on an engine unit 140 provided in the image forming apparatus to perform an image forming job by driving the engine unit 140 in a normal mode state under the control of the main controller 110, the main controller transmits a low-power mode change request to the sub-controller 120 if a condition for changing a mode state from the normal mode state to a low-power mode state is satisfied, and the sub-controller 120 copies a low-power service program stored in the first memory 115 into the second memory 125 if the low-power mode change request is received, and performs a low-power service by executing the low-power service program through accessing of the second memory 125. |
