PURPOSE:To more reduce power consumption at the time of standing by executing switching control with a manpower saving instruction. CONSTITUTION:A relaying armature is interposed among a related equipment for forming an image except a fixing unit 10, an input board 150, and an inputting/reading control part 100, the externally attached equipments of an ADF(automatic document feeder) 50, a sorter 40, etc., and the power output end of a power source circuit, and opened in response to an instruction to conserve energy. A relay is separated from the power source circuit and mounted on a relaying substrate. Consequently. in a standby state, control power to obtain a response to the instruction of an operation, to an equipment not requiring supply with the power, is saved, as well. The installation of the power source circuit and the connection of the equipment with a power source 106, can be made easy by using the relaying substrate. |
