ABSTRACT:
Between a document feeding device and a document processing device, documents are received in a sequential order in a buffer station, temporarily stored in a transport path and delivered in the order of receipt. The transport of the documents in a collecting portion of the transport path is controlled separately from the transport of the documents in a delivery portion of the transport path. After delivery of a single or last document present in the delivery portion from the delivery portion, and before the piece-by-piece delivery of documents of a next group from the delivery portion is started, the next group of documents collected in the collecting portion is passed on to the delivery portion. A buffer station for practicing the method is also described.
