Abstract

PURPOSE:To solve the problem of a power supply being left ON after use by providing a circuit for detecting the lapse of a predetermined period of time after transmission of data is finished, and a means for disconnecting a power supply part in response to an output signal from the detecting circuit. CONSTITUTION:Data sent from a host device is received by a data sink circuit part 1, is transferred to a CPU, and a specified signal in the data is inputted to a detecting circuit 2. It is detected that the signal thus inputted remains in the same status for at least a preset period of time. Based on the detection, it is detected that the transmission of the data is finished, and a detection signal is outputted to an oscillating circuit part 3 in a power circuit. Upon receiving the signal from the detecting circuit part 2, the oscillating circuit part 3 stops oscillating. By this, a power supply part is turned OFF.

Conventionally, the power on/off operation of this type of printer device has been performed only by a mechanical switch provided on the outside of the printer device.

The conventional power on/off method described above uses only a mechanical switch, so it has the disadvantage that it is easy to forget to turn off the power. This is because when printing for a long time (for example, 10 minutes or more), it is rare for the printer to wait on the spot until the printing is finished. Therefore, even though printing has finished, the power is turned off.
There are many cases where it is left as N.

Referring to FIG. 1, data from a host device is received by a data receiving circuit section 1, and the data is transferred to a CPU. The specific data to be transferred is input to the detection circuit 2. The detection circuit 2 detects that the input signal remains in the same state for a preset time or longer. As a result, it knows that the data transmission from the host device has ended, and outputs a detection signal to the oscillation circuit section 3 of the power supply circuit.
