Abstract
There is provided a sheet processing apparatus that is capable of preventing a stapled sheet bundle from being misaligned at a side edge thereof or becoming torn or wrinkled when the sheet bundle is discharged. The sheet processing apparatus comprises a stapler that staples a sheet bundle comprising a plurality of sheets, downstream discharge rollers that discharge the sheet bundle, a driving motor that drives the downstream discharge rollers, and a controller that controls the driving device. The controller controls discharge of the sheet bundle in different ways between a case where the stapler staples the sheet bundle at one point thereof and a case where the stapler staples the sheet bundle at two points thereof.
Claims5
A sheet processing apparatus comprising:
- a stapling device that staples a sheet bundle comprising a plurality of sheets;
- a discharge device that discharges the sheet bundle;
- a driving device that drives said discharge device;
- and
- a controller that controls said driving device;
- and
- wherein said controller controls a discharge speed of the sheet bundle in different ways after the controller initiates the driving device to move the sheet bundle between a case where said stapling device staples the sheet bundle at one point thereof and a case where said stapling device staples the sheet bundle at two points thereof.
