PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging system in which post-processing can be carried out in many cases, its post-processing method and a storage medium. SOLUTION: When stapling is designated, a stapler unit 125 fixed to a finisher 124 makes a decision whether stapling of current number of pages + 1 page is possible or not. If it is impossible, the stapler unit 125 of the finisher 124 is replaced and then a decision is made whether stapling is possible or not. If it is possible, printing is interrupted and a display for urging a user to replace the stapler unit 125 is presented at an operating section 210. A decision is made again whether stapling is possible or not because the stapler unit 125 may have been replaced. Subsequently, a decision is made whether stapling of current number of pages + 1 page is possible or not using a stapler unit fixed to the finisher 124. Processing is ended if stapling is possible otherwise designation of stapling is released before ending the processing. |
