ABSTRACT:
A sheet sorter with a stapler includes bins arranged in a vertical direction each of which receives a plurality of sheets discharged from an image recording apparatus to form a stack of sheets. An indexer receives the sheets from the image recording apparatus and is movable up and down along the array of sheet inlet ends of the bins to distribute the sheets to the respective bins through the sheet inlet ends. A stapler is movable along the path of travel of the indexer independently therefrom to staple the stack of sheets on each bin. The stapler is arranged to wait in a waiting position retracted from the path of travel of the indexer in a direction of width of the sheets while the indexer is travelling along the path.
