ABSTRACT:
An automated image duplicating apparatus including the combination of a main module and a subsidiary module which is typically implemented by an automatic document feeder, wherein the apparatus has a variety of optional copying conditions and modes of operation available therein and including exceptional ones which can not be executed unless a predetermined requirement is fulfilled. If the optional conditions and modes of operation including the exceptional ones are requested without the predetermined requirement, the execution of the exceptional conditions and modes of operation are held in abeyance until the requirement is satisfied. When the predetermined requirement is satisfied thereafter, copying is performed in accordance with all the requested optional copying conditions and modes of operation including the exceptional ones. The predetermined requirement is typically the state of the automatic document feeder ready to operate, and the exceptional conditions and modes of operation typically include automatic paper-size and magnification/reduction ratio select modes.
