ABSTRACT:
A sequence controller controls an image forming apparatus which includes a plurality of paper supply paths, a plurality of paper eject paths, an image forming device, and abnormally informing devices for informing an abnormity in the paper supply and eject paths. The sequence controller includes a memory device for storing at least image forming information related to a plurality of pages, the image forming information including image data related to images to be formed and paper path information for selecting one paper supply path and one paper eject path out of the plurality of paper supply and eject paths, and a control device for controlling an image forming operation of the image forming apparatus so as to form an image using the selected paper supply and eject paths which are selected by the paper path information. The control device has a function of automatically changing at least the paper path information related to an arbitrary one of the pages, in response to an abnormity in at least one of the selected paper supply and eject paths informed by the abnormity informing device.
