ABSTRACT:
A sheet processing device according to the present invention is formed of a support device for supporting one or more sheets supplied from an image forming device, an ejecting device for ejecting the one or more sheets supported by the support device, and a stacking device for stacking the one or more sheets ejected from the support device by the ejecting device; wherein the sheet processing device further includes an auxiliary support device which is disposed at a distal end side in a sheet ejecting direction of the support device, and the auxiliary support device is rotatably moved between a support position for supporting at least a forward end of the sheet and a retreating position retreated from the support position. Therefore, a stacking area of the support device can be varied, and moreover, ejecting the one or more sheets temporarily stacked on the stacking device can be easily operated.
