PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the working efficiency of equipment as a system by carrying out accumulation of sheet bundles or an image forming operation on the upstream side while an adhesive is melted at the start of the equipment. SOLUTION: A temperature control means is provided and it controls a heating means so that the adhesive in the vessel reaches a prescribed melting temperature, on the occasion when the equipment is supplied with power, while a control is made so that sheets are sequentially conveyed from a conveyance route to a loading tray means and accumulated thereat by a sheet conveying means, while the adhesive is melted under the control of the temperature control means. According to this constitution, image formation and the accumulation of the sheets in the shape of the bundle are carried out in the course of melting of the adhesive that requires much time, unlike the conventional practice that these operations in the preceding processes are carried out after a warming time when the adhesive held in the vessel is melted to a prescribed temperature. Therefore the processing efficiency of the equipment or the system can be improved. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
