CPC Class H04N

A communication apparatus equipped with a direct wireless communication function for executing a direct wireless communication with an external apparatus includes a memory that stores a program, and a processor that executes the program. The program, in a case that a first setting for instructing to use a Service Set Identifier, SSID, corresponding to a user who logs in to the communication apparatus, is set in the communication apparatus, executes the direct wireless communication function using the SSID corresponding to the user who logs in to the communication apparatus, and in a case that a second setting for instructing to use an SSID that is different from a previous SSID which is generated previously is set in the communication apparatus, executes the direct wireless communication function using the SSID that is different from the previous SSID.

An image forming apparatus operates in a normal mode in a first electric power state and in a power saving mode in which more electric power is saved than in the first electric power state. The image forming apparatus includes a motion sensor, an operation section, and a controller. The controller executes a first timer process in response to receipt of the detection signal and executes a second timer process in response to receipt of the operation signal. At a time when a first period elapses indicating that the first timer process times out, the controller transitions from the normal mode to the power saving mode. At a time when a second period elapses indicating that the second timer process times out, the controller transitions from the normal mode to the power saving mode. The first period is shorter than the second period.
