<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To clarify the partition of a transfer paper bunch turning to a set to be accumulated on a stack tray even in the case where the number of sheets of transfer paper constituting the transfer paper bunch to be made in a set exceeds the number of storage allowable sheets. SOLUTION: This image forming device is equipped with an intermediate tray 341, temporarily storing the plural sheets of transfer paper to be discharged out of an image forming part, while discharging a transfer paper bunch run up to the specified number of sheets to the outside, a stack tray 381 successively stacking the transfer paper bunch being discharged out of this intermediate tray 341, a sorting means 343 installed in the intermediate tray 341 sorting the transfer paper bunch to be stacked on this stack tray 381, and a control means controlling the storing means 343 so as to make the sorting direction of each transfer paper bunch to be discharged as divided in the same set come to the same direction when the number of sheets of the transfer paper making up the transfer paper bunch to be made in a set exceeds the number of storage allowable sheets of the intermediate tray 341, respectively.</p> |
