<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reconcile high functions of using various sizes of recording paper selectively and sorting recorded recording paper, with miniaturization. <P>SOLUTION: Paper feeding sorter bins 31a to 31d, paper discharging sorter bins 32a to 32j and an output paper tray 33 are arranged in superposition in which unused recording paper is supplied from any paper feeding sorter bin or recorded recording paper is discharged to any paper discharging sorter bin or the output paper tray. Unlike a conventional image forming device, an image forming device 1 can omit a plurality of paper feed cassettes to realize miniaturization. The paper feeding sorter bins and the paper discharging sorter bins are vertically moved to an appropriate height and the sorter bins are spaced out to thus facilitate work of filling the paper feeding sorter bins with unused recording paper and work of removing recorded recording paper from the paper discharging sorter bins. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO</p> |
