1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a detection unit configured to detect an object;
a reception unit configured to receive an operation of a user; and
a shifting unit configured to shift, if the detection unit detects an object, a power state of the image forming apparatus from a first power state to a second power state different from the first power state, and shift, if the reception unit receives an operation of a user, the power state of the image forming apparatus between the second power state and the first power state,wherein the shifting unit, in a case where the reception unit receives the operation of a user after the detection unit detects an object and before the power state of the image forming apparatus is shifted to the second power state by the shifting unit in response to such detection, does not shift the power state of the image forming apparatus from the second power state to the first power state in response to receiving the operation of the user.

Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a detection unit configured to detect an object, a reception unit configured to receive an operation of a user, and a shifting unit configured to shift, if the detection unit detects an object, a power state of the image forming apparatus from a first power state to a second power state different from the first power state, and shift, if the reception unit receives an operation of a user, the power state of the image forming apparatus from the second power state to the first power state.

1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
-
a detection unit configured to detect an object; a reception unit configured to receive an operation of a user; and a shifting unit configured to shift, if the detection unit detects an object, a power state of the image forming apparatus from a first power state to a second power state different from the first power state, and shift, if the reception unit receives an operation of a user, the power state of the image forming apparatus between the second power state and the first power state, wherein the shifting unit, in a case where the reception unit receives the operation of a user after the detection unit detects an object and before the power state of the image forming apparatus is shifted to the second power state by the shifting unit in response to such detection, does not shift the power state of the image forming apparatus from the second power state to the first power state in response to receiving the operation of the user. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A method of controlling an image forming apparatus, the method comprising:
-
shifting, in a case where an object is detected, a power state in the image forming apparatus from a first power state to a second power state different from the first power state; shifting, in a case where a user operation is received, the power state in the image forming apparatus between from the second power state and to the first power state; and performing control, in a case where the operation of a user is received after an object is detected and before the power state of the image forming apparatus is shifted to the second power state in response to such detection, the control performed such that the power state of the image forming apparatus is not shifted from the second power state to the first power state in response to receiving the operation of the user.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer executable instructions for causing a computer to perform a method, the method comprising:
-
shifting, in a case where an object is detected, a power state in the image forming apparatus from a first power state to a second power state different from the first power state; shifting, in a case where a user operation is received, the power state in the image forming apparatus between from the second power state and to the first power state; and performing control, after detection of the object, during the shift of shifting, in a case where a user operation is received, the power state in the image forming apparatus between the second power state and the first power state; and performing control, in a case where the operation of a user is received after an object is detected and before the power state of the image forming apparatus is shifted to the second power state in response to such detection, the control performed such that the power state of the image forming apparatus is not shifted from the second power state to the first power state in response to receiving the operation of the user.
