ABSTRACT:
A sheet post-processing apparatus has a stacking section for storing sheets received from an image forming apparatus for post-processing, a sheet saving section for temporarily saving a specified number of sheets being conveyed to the stacking section and then causing them to accompany a sheet conveyed next for the batch feed of the sheets, and a controller for executing a control to batch feed remaining sheets by causing the remaining sheets to accompany the temporarily saved sheets of a previous set if the remaining sheets falls short of the number of the sheets to be batch fed. Even if the total number of the sheets saved in the auxiliary storing section and the last sheet of the sheet bundle falls short of the preset batch feed number, the need for temporarily suspending the conveyance of the first sheet of the next bundle can be eliminated to speed-up the sheet processing.
