ABSTRACT:
A copy system has a duplicator with a limited capacity duplex tray and a high-volume sorter that has 10 towers with 60 bins in each tower. Transport and directing mechanisms are operated to distribute copies to the various bins. A microprocessor control system operates the duplicator and the sorter. The control determines how many bins are to receive each collated set in the collated duplex mode of operation. The towers are operated in a single tower loading mode if the number of bins for each collated set is one. On the other hand, the towers are operated in a multiple tower loading mode if the number of sets for each collated set is greater than one.
