Abstract:
An image forming apparatus that enters a first power state in which a predetermined function is executable and a second power state in which the predetermined function is not executable includes a detection unit configured to detect an object; a return unit that a user operates in order to shift the image forming apparatus from the second power state to the first power state; a notification unit configured to, in a case where an object has been detected by the detection unit, notify a user of a position of the return unit; and a power-source control unit configured to, in a case where the return unit has been operated by the user, shift the image forming apparatus from the second power state to the first power state.
