ABSTRACT:
A finisher connected to a digital copying machine includes a folding device for folding output paper into Z shape, a binding device for binding a sheaf of the papers into a preset size, and a control unit that determines whether image property will be affected or not when the images are printed on the A4 size paper, and print on the A3 size paper and fold the A3 paper into the Z-shape if it is determined that the property will be affected. Therefore, even if the original document size is different from the exclusive use cover size, the finisher provides good legibility of the characters printing its output automatically on paper of a proper size matching the exclusive use cover. In other words, good-looking bookbinding can be easily accomplished for documents of varying sizes without manually adjusting enlargement/reduction factors.
