Image forming system for executing stapling process

An image forming system comprising:

• an image forming unit configured to form an image on recording material;
• a processing tray on which the recording material, having the formed image, is to be placed;
• a recording material detecting unit configured to detect the recording material placed on the processing tray;
• a stapling unit configured to execute a stapling process with respect to the recording material placed on the processing tray;
• a discharge unit configured to discharge, from the processing tray via a discharge port, the recording material subjected to the stapling process by the stapling unit;
• and
• a control unit configured to perform control, wherein, in a state in which the recording material detecting unit detects the recording material inserted into the processing tray from outside of a main body of the recording material detecting unit via the discharge port, the control unit performs control so that the stapling unit executes the stapling process,
• wherein, in a case where the control unit receives an interruption instruction to interrupt a power supply of the image forming system in a state in which the recording material detecting unit detects the recording material, before the stapling process is performed, the control unit interrupts the power supply without causing the stapling unit to execute the stapling process, and
• wherein, in a case where the power supply of the image forming system is restored from the interruption, the control unit does not determine that a paper jam occurs even in a case where the recording material detecting unit detects the recording material.
