$(T,S)$ is $\lambda$-commute iff they commute

Let $\mathcal{B}(F)$ the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space $F$.

Let $T,S\in\mathcal{B}(F)$. The pair $(T,S)$ is said to be $\lambda$-commute if there exists $\lambda\in \mathbb{C}^*$ such that $TS=\lambda ST$. What is a necessary and sufficient condition on operators $S$ and $T$ such that $(T,S)$ is $\lambda$-commute iff they commute ?
