Image forming apparatus and method of monitoring image forming apparatus power consumption

摘要

An image forming apparatus (100) and a method of monitoring power consumption of the image forming apparatus are provided. For each one of parts of the image forming apparatus selected for monitoring, part-specific power consumption information is obtained based on accumulated operation amount information. The obtained part-specific power consumption information is used to generate power consumption information indicating an amount of electric power consumed by at least a portion of the image forming apparatus.
