Abstract
In one example, a printer with parallel/serial operational sequencing includes an engine control unit and an image processor unit each coupled to a set of sub-systems. A network unit is coupled to the image processor unit to monitor network packets while the engine control unit, the set of sub-systems, and the image processor unit are in sleep states. When a first predetermined packet is received, the network unit signals with a first modulation signal that the image processor unit is to awaken first before the image processor unit determines whether to awaken the engine control unit and any of the set of sub-systems. When a second predetermined packet is received, the network unit signals with a second modulation signal that the image processor unit, the engine control unit, and a portion of the set of sub-systems are to awaken at the same time.
