A computer system includes a system part, a connector to which an external device is connected, a communication unit which performs communication with the external device, and a control unit which is connected between the connector and the communication unit to monitor a state of a predetermined recognition signal applied from the external device when the system part is in a standby mode. The control unit performs a predetermined function corresponding to the monitored state of the recognition signal. When the system part is in the standby mode, the system part may be switched to an operation mode based on the recognition signal from the external device. Additionally, a predetermined charging power is output to an external device in response to the predetermined recognition signal applied from the external device connected to the connector while the system part exists in the standby mode.

Computer system and control method thereof

Disclosed is an image forming apparatus capable of controlling a fuser thereof to operate effectively even with a possible fluctuation in the AC voltage input. The image forming apparatus may include an input for receiving an AC voltage, a detector that outputs a DC voltage corresponding to a level of the AC voltage input, a fuser operable to produce heat according to the AC voltage input, a storage in which fusing temperature control information and a controller that controls the fuser using the fusing temperature control information corresponding to the DC voltage.
