Embodiment Construction

[0020] FIG. 1 shows the basic configuration of an image forming system. This system includes, for example, a copier 10 and a finisher 20 . The finisher 20 of the system operates in a state of being adjacent to and connected to the copier 10 . The copier 10 may be a multifunction device. In addition to the function of a copier, a multi-function device also has functions such as a fax machine, a network printer, and a network scanner.

[0021] A print controller 12 is installed on the copier 10 . Another controller 25 is attached to the finisher 20 . These controllers 12, 25 include, for example, circuits with a central processing unit. The circuits are respectively incorporated in the copier 10 and the finisher 20 in a state formed on a substrate. In addition, storage units 13, 28 are connected to these controllers 12, 25, respectively. These storage units 13, 28 have memory or hard disk drives.

[0022] When using the copier 10 , data set by the user by operating the op...

Abstract

In an image forming device, images of originals up to an upper limit number of stapling are read (S 1 to S 5 ) and image data thereof are processed (S 6 to S 8 ). If a paper sensor has detected a subsequent original even when the number of pages of the read images reaches NS 0 (S 1 , S 2 ), a finisher discharges a bundle of printed papers without stapling. Consequently, the number of the printed papers included in the discharged bundle is made less than the upper limit number. In a case where the number of the printed papers sent to the finisher (S 12 , S 13 ) is less than a set number NS 1 (S 15 ), the bundle is discharged without being stapled after the number of the printed papers reaches NS 1 (S 17 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming system, and more particularly, to an image forming system including a finisher that overlaps prints or copies and then binds them. Background technique [0002] Typically, a finisher is used in combination with a printer or copier. A printer or copier ejects printed or copied paper one by one. After receiving the discharged sheets, the finisher stacks them one by one in sequence. And, the finisher binds the stack of sheets formed by overlapping a certain number of sheets. [0003] The number of sheets that can be stapled by the finisher has an upper limit. Even if the number of sheets exceeds the upper limit, if the paper is still ejected from the printer or copier, the finisher can no longer perform stapling even if it accepts the paper. In that case, the finisher only finishes receiving the sheets first and discharges them without stapling the sheets formed into a bundle in preparation for staplin...
