[0067] 1 is a sectional view showing the structure of a photocopier (digital multifunction device) that can be applied to an image forming apparatus (image forming system) according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

[0068] As shown in FIG. 1 , an image forming apparatus (also referred to as “image forming system”) 1000 according to the present invention has a reader unit 1 and a printer unit 2 . As a tool for performing various types of page processing (for example, binder processing, pad binding processing, finishing processing, staple processing, punch processing, sheet shifting processing, etc.) ), the system 1000 also has a binding unit 230 . The following is a description of the structure and action of the reader unit 1 . The structures and actions of the printer unit 2 and the binding unit (also referred to as "sheet processing device") 230 will be described later.

[0069] Note that, with image forming system 1000 , each of units such as reader unit 1 ...

example 1

[0648] Assume that the user sets 50 sheets of an A4-size double-sided original document on the original document feeding device 101, sets A-4 size printed sheets on the cassette 214, and sets a desired size printed sheet on the manual feed tray 227 ( In this case, 297 mm x 424 mm, which corresponds to a printed page of A4 size and a spine width of 4 mm). Then, once the user sets the case binding according to the operation flow shown in FIGS. Image data is read from both sides of the 50-page original document (S9-2). That is, a total of 100 faces of original document data are read out.

[0649] Next, the flow goes to step S9-2, where, based on the fact that the 100-sided original document data has been read out, it is determined that 50 printed pages are required for double-sided printing. That is, the system determines that the number of printed pages is "50". Note that the number of printed pages is determined based on print settings such as single-sided printing, 2-in-1 p...

example 2

[0652] Next, Example 2 will be described. In Example 2, it is assumed that the user sets five A4-size double-sided original documents on the original document feeding device 101, A4-size printed pages on the cassette 214, and a desired size on the manual feed tray 227. Printed pages (in this case, 297 mm x 424 mm, which correspond to a pair of A4 size printed pages and have a spine width of 4 mm).

[0653] Once the user sets the case binding according to the operation flow shown in FIGS. 6A to 7D and presses the start key 4-241, the flow goes to step S9-1, where the processing starts so that the original document is fed from the original document feeding device 101. , and read image data from both sides of the 5-page original document. That is, the original document data of 10 sides in total are read out. The flow goes to step S9-2, and since the original document data is 10 sides, it is determined that there are 5 pages in double-sided printing, so the number of printed pag...

Abstract

An image forming system has an image forming apparatus which has a printing unit which can perform a printing process of data of a storage unit which can store data of a plurality of jobs and which has a conveying unit which can convey a sheet from the print unit to a sheet processing device which can perform sheet processing, including at least a gluing process, for sheets from the printing unit, the system comprising: a controller adapted to permit a predetermined process related to the gluing process when the job to be processed is a job which meets a predetermined condition, and to inhibit the predetermined process related to the gluing process when the job to be processed is not a job which meets the predetermined condition, thereby overcoming obstacles to realization of an image forming system capable of a gluing process.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus, and more particularly, to an image forming system having a sheet processing apparatus that performs glue binding, and to a control method, a recording medium, a program thereof, and the like. Background technique [0002] In recent years, digital multifunction devices having imposition functions using digital image processing and booklet printing (booklet printing) capabilities have been realized, and now, page processing apparatuses for performing center stitching in booklet printing processing are being suggested . [0003] Although the degree of processing that can be achieved by such a sheet processing apparatus with a center-stitching function is limited to simple binding at present, there is a possibility that a higher level of binding processing will be required in the future, for example, glue binding in which printed items are glued together, that is, Binding closer to professional ...
