ABSTRACT:
A sheet handling apparatus is provided adjacent to an image forming apparatus. The sheet handling apparatus staples sheets discharged from the image forming apparatus, and it includes a plurality of bins, a stapler, a discharge mechanism, and a stack tray. The sheets are stapled while they are nipped by the discharge mechanism. The bins store the sheets supplied from the image forming apparatus. The stapler staples the sheets stored in the bins. The discharge mechanism discharges the stapled sheets from the bins frontward with respect to the image forming apparatus, where an operator normally stands. The sheet storer is conveyable in both a vertical and a lateral direction. The stack tray is located alongside the front of the image forming apparatus, and stores the sheets discharged by the discharge mechanism.
