Abstract
A USB host portion is supplied with power in a normal mode, and the power supply is stopped in a power saving mode. The USB host portion can acquire print request data from a communication device while outputting a first control signal. Power is supplied to a signal input portion and a signal output portion in both modes. The signal input portion can receive a signal from the communication device. A control portion shifts to the normal mode when a notification signal is input to the signal input portion while operating in the power saving mode. The signal output portion outputs a second control signal in both the normal mode and the power saving mode. The voltage output portion outputs a rated voltage to the communication device when at least one of the first control signal and the second control signal is output.
