A post-processing unit connected to a recorded sheet discharge section of an electronic copying machine, in which a sheet rolling unit forms a recorded sheet as a rolled sheet and seals the rolled sheet by a label or the like so as not to be spread out. Thus, the recorded sheet can be received by a discharge tray in the form of a rolled sheet. In addition, a mechanism for directly discharging the recorded sheet without rolling at the sheet rolling unit is arranged so that short recorded sheets and recorded sheets for which rolling is not specified can be well taken care of. Additionally, in the sheet rolling unit, a discharge guide for directly discharging the recorded paper is provided so that the recorded paper can be received a discharge tray in a condition of an arbitrary surface, front or back, of the recorded sheet facing upward. In addition, the discharging mechanism of the sheet rolling unit is operated in high speed so that the recorded paper can be discharged in high speed even if a distance from the image forming apparatus is short. |
