<p>An electronic printing apparatus according to the present invention provides, for a print controller, a normal operating mode and a power saving mode for which less power is required. More preferably, when the print controller is set to the power saving mode, an interface circuit for accepting a printing interrupt is maintained in the normal state, and a CPU for controlling the printing sequence enters a power saving state. Then, the print controller, while in the power saving mode, can realize a constant savings in power, and can appropriately accept an interrupt, such as a print interrupt. <IMAGE></p> |
