ABSTRACT:
A copying apparatus which automatically produces duplex copies in logical page sequence from simplex originals comprises transport paths for conveying originals to and from a copying position, imaging means for producing an image of an original onto a copy sheet, a first hopper to collect single-sided copy sheets, a second hopper to collect duplex copies and delivery means for delivering the duplex copies into the second hopper. The delivery means comprises a first delivery path and a second delivery path, and a detector in the transport path of the originals determines whether the number of originals to be copied is even or odd, thus causing the duplex copies to be delivered through the first or the second delivery path, depending on whether an even or an odd number of originals has been detected by the detector. The apparatus disclosed is also suited for programmed production of simplex copies from simplex originals, duplex copies from duplex originals, and simplex copies from duplex originals.
